Pros

The people at this place are great, they are hard working and caring. The projects are very complex and international.

Cons

Nonexistent benefits, long commute from Vancouver area to Abbotsford, the management is very inexperienced and chaotic. Be prepared to train new people constantly due to the erratic hiring and firing of staff. They seem to be extremely biased gravitadeing towards hiring only white men. Extremely Christian to the point of doing a lords prayer before a company lunch. expectation of working long hours with no overtime pay.

Pros

The company does cutting edge work in mass timber

Cons

There's serious churn in staff, between people being let go and others choosing to leave. If you're not a structural engineer, you may feel secondary to the business. Homogenous employee base may lead to groupthink.

Pros

Great community and atmosphere, personally was given a ton of opportunities to learn every area of the shop. It was very common to start as a labourer and then be given the opportunity to do things such as; go to school to become a carpenter, get tickets for overhead cranes and forklifts, become a machine operator, or work in the office on some occasions. Benefits were some of the best I’ve ever had.

Cons

The night shift was brutal for mental health, as the shift ended at 3am. Also, was promised a pay scale when hired and it unfortunately was not upheld later on which was a bit frustrating, however that was partially my fault as I did not get it in writing
