Great benefits and people. Work is demanding, but interesting and rewarding.

Leadership of some divisions is lacking respect and kindness for their employees.
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Family oriented company. Great benefits, amazing jobs for experience.
Cons
Not enough work coming up in the future, upper management isn’t fully involved at all projects, Head of HR, Ryan Cruthers does not care about his job. Emailing HR is like talking to a wall and hoping for a response. Gilbane throws people into a job not considering your skills and sets you up for failure. If you can’t handle those situations, this is not the place for you. Poor training for younger folks/ in experienced people.
