      Approves of CEO

      I worked at Ledcor full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Company will train you however, you're going to be held accountable for all work. If something happens, they don't write you up, they fire you. I guess this isn't a Pro after all.

      Cons

      No room for advancement. Sr. Management has no idea what they're doing. They've hired their own people (people who worked with them before on other projects in other states). They place the cart before the horse. Almost 3/4 of the people hired actually do not do anything because there's no work.

    10. "Old Boys Club"

      I have been working at Ledcor full-time

      Pros

      Good salary, good benefits, option to purchase shares, fun place to work most of the time

      Cons

      Ridiculous overhead makes it nearly impossible to win bids. Old boys club is at large.
