Unlimited PTO. Good pay. Good benefits

Horrible culture. Leaders come from outside the construction industry, have no construction experience, and lead with their ego. Huge turnover percentage in the STL office.

Pros

Great bosses, no micromanaging. They trust you to get your job done and empower you with the tools to do so. PTO, Benefits, Networking and Development opportunities, happy hours, flexible working hours, relaxed dress code

Cons

High stress job - just know that going into it! Lack of advancement (there are opportunities but there may be a little bit of a wait to get them)
