Pros

Flexible schedule, good health care coverage.

Cons

The culture at JR is an absolute joke. The office is essentially a dead zone in terms of personality. People could care less about meeting you or getting to know you because the turnover rate is so high. And it is high for good reason. There is zero formal training and you will never have enough work. In the construction services department you might even have work stolen from you; zero camaraderie amongst co workers. Having work stolen off your desk is a result of the micromanagement tool the company uses which involves you submitting a detailed 40 hour work report for what you did during the week. This report is to include hour by hour what you did over the week. Given the fact that you will never have enough work given to you to fill a 40 hour work week this is very difficult.

Pros

Flexible hours with understanding of personal lives Ebbs and flows of workload (normal), been busy most of the time, especially if you seek out work. And it takes some time for new hires to accumulate work. Relationships with coworkers is on you; very friendly people when you get to know them No drama if you don't create it Good benefits and profit sharing. The owner/admin really care to optimize our benefits Quarterly company events (have done holiday parties, ski trips, bowling, adventure park, Elitch Gardens, Rockies games) Golf League and Softball League

Cons

Below average pay for 2019 Denver Communication. Extra effort must be made to keep teams on the same page Still growing since the downturn Not very involved in the Denver community

Pros

Good company culture as a whole. Takes care of employees

Cons

Survey dept unstructured. Loved the company-not how survey dept was ran. No career advancement opportunities & engineers had more freedom & opportunities than survey dept. no room for growth or re-location for commuting/family life. Pto is terrible & had to use pto for inclement weather days or being sent home by manager due to bad weather. Claim “flex schedules” but still frowned upon if you need time off.
