Pros
Field work cool company culture (when it was still Wood) Opportunities for OT pay; time and a half (when it was still Wood) Exciting projects Cool coworkers and project managers Abundant access to field equipment, tools and machinery
Cons
Lack of direction on workflow duties (figure it out yourself) Difficult to find consistent long-term work on cyclical projects; lots of instability and anxiety Benefits get super slashed after merging with WSP Long hours with no OT pay since merging with WSP Cliquey work environment often feeling like an outsider/office gossip Difficult to promote to higher salary - huge hierarchy with too many doors to knock on - your project managers can’t move things up the corporate chain without a huge amount of resistance and backlash
