- 3.0Nov 9, 2023Project EngineerCurrent Employee
Pros
Turner is stable and typically exhausts other options before layoffs. They offer mobility around the US if you desire a move. They listen to your input about what role/opportunities you’d like to pursue at the company.
Cons
The base pay seems 10-15% below industry average. Promotional track seems to vary widely based on what role you get assigned, and there are hundreds of different roles available with the title “engineer.”
- 2.0Oct 4, 2023Construction ManagerCurrent Employee, more than 3 yearsBuffalo, NY
Pros
I don’t have any pros at the moment that are noteworthy.
Cons
Business units ride the company reputation and don’t do much internally to earn it. Zero transparency, no communication, no open door policy, BMs look out for themselves, toxic project management styles and dynamics are encouraged, managers rely on TKN for training instead of one-on-one training, pay is inadequate, it’s normal to be spread thin than it is to have balance, working long hours and driving long distances are expected, not enough support or admin staff, I could go on indefinitely.
