Pros
The people that work in my division are great to deal with and most are very hard working. Unusual for a mega company, the leadership actually seems to care about their employees.
Cons
It's a mega company so local leadership is beholden to the ideas of upper management that are hundreds of miles away.
What's needed to win a project in terms of staffing and GC cost is rarely even in the same ballpark as what is needed to perform the project. Projects get delayed up front and rarely is there a resulting extension of time. As a result project staffing suffers and the minimal staff that is placed on the project has to pull the work load to make up for these issues.Balfour Beatty 2017-08-20 08:11 PDT
