      Great Company Dedicated to Change

      Nov. 15, 2022 - MEP Superintendent

      Pros

      DPR is always looking for new ways to build. There is never a sense that they are doing it the same way just because it worked last time. Lots of employee benefits and a great laid back work culture.

      Cons

      You will work harder than you ever have. Everyone is super smart and dedicated to their projects. Definitely not a just put in the minimum kind of place
