Pros

Good projects in a lot of different locations. They get jobs that other companies cant because of there size. If you want security of a company and not looking to be challenged fast this is you place. If you like to be in charge of the door knobs on a large job work here.

Cons

You are just a number and can get lost. Not challenged and not utilized at first. Must "do your time" before you can be considered for a better job. It is hard to stay motivated at work with out the opportunities to show your stuff and do more.

Pros

Turner has offices across the entire country and is a great way to get started in the construction industry. The transfer potential to a different office location is very high and the company has individuals to help in this type of transition. Such a large company can provide many different opportunities for employees to work on many different projects. This is a great advantage to smaller construction managers or general contractors which generally have their own specific niche of projects.

Cons

Such a large company makes promotions and job recognitions somewhat arbitrary. Staff are sometimes promoted on personal relationships they may have with management and not necessarily based on performance.

Pros

Turner is a big, established company. There are many locations to choose from if you choose to transfer and it is international. The pay seems to be pretty good for my position, but I know the higher levels make a LOT more money.

Cons

Construction can be fickle. Sometimes there's work; sometimes there isn't. It can become worrisome when work is slow.
