Pros

Good firm for entry level. Good experience. Realxed work environment. Long hours of work are generally not required. Good beneifts.

Cons

Poor salaray scale Can progress only if you know how to play "company politics" No reward for hard work (neither overtime nor bonus) Jobs are not challanging after you gain some years of experience, same old.. same old... No mentoring at all.

Pros

You have sustainable hours for construction but there is mandatory overtime (The most I’ve done is 51 hours in a week), they pay you enough to live on, it’s good experience, upper management pays lip service to workers rights, there is genuine concern and regulation from management to provide you an emotionally and physically safe place to work, you’re never really rushed to do your job, and you do have the right to stop work

Cons

You need a degree in engineering or geology to move up and you have to threaten to move offices or take another job to get a pay raise. It’s not unionized.
