Pros

You’ll meet great people across the board. Depending on the size of your office, you may get to wear multiple hats—which keeps it interesting. Over-communicate and you’ll be ahead of the curve.

Cons

Work can get overly repetitive. Pay is not as competitive as you would hope. Unless your an engineer, you may wait on a promotion that may never come.

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.
