At Public Works, we value transparency, equity, and respect. We foster a company culture where all team members can be heard. As one of the Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies of 2023 we acknowledge that leaders in a fast-paced growth environment sometimes place our clients' needs ahead of those of individual team members. As we grow, we are working with our management team to develop effective leadership skills for successful, highly productive teams in which the contributions of all members are valued and they feel it.

Pros

-Interesting projects with similar types of clients -Nice, committed junior staff eager to learn - Small firm with big mission

Cons

-Disorganized senior/executive management who treated subcontractors like disposable resources, rather than assets to a team. -Disregard for investment in internal infrastructure; it was hard to watch project managers and junior staff struggle -Toxic work environment; it was sad to have full time staff reach out for help -Underpayment of subcontractors compared to the market. -In hindsight, all subcontractors at the time were white, regardless of project content or geography they were working on

This advice is helpful and in recent years, we have strengthened our management approach to ensure that every employee and contractor feels valued and gets the supervision they need. Thank you.
