Pros

Nothing at all comes to mind.

Cons

I was hired into a newly created role at the time by a new manager with no direction. I was assigned an assistant who I found writing extremely disparaging emails about me to department coworkers behind my back. Assistant became confrontational in public, creating a hostile work environment for me. She lied to my boss re my whereabouts when I had a flat tire during my lunch break and had to wait for help. I also came to find out I was purposely being sabotaged/set up to fail by others in the department. I was forced out and told my last day would be X date when I had no negative review or disciplinary action in my file.

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.
