Pros

The business model that Skanska is like no other. The benefits of Commercial Development, Building, Civil, and Infrastructure Development provides opportunities to learn and different areas of the construction / real estate industries. Commercial Development provides additional projects for Building, and Infrastructure Development provides projects for Civil, however these projects are not your typical owner/contractor relationship. The benefits are good for a large company, and the work-life balance is typical of a large construction company.

Cons

The people that end up in senior leadership positions need to be trained better. Some of these people lack basic leadership, communication, and/or knowledge. As with any large corporation, Skanska moves slow and is very ridged in what they do.

Pros

They have a lot of work to do

Cons

Absent culture, management system, and very behind IT program. Everyone is only out for themselves. Massive issue when corporate meets construction, managers don’t understand scopes, staffing plans, decent business practice, etc.
