RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI worked at Webcor full-time (More than 5 years)
Pros
- Competitive Salary and superior benefits than most competing contractors in the area
- If you are seriously considering working for a contractor that is a builder and not just a management firm, Webcor is the right place for you
- Webcor has several Self-performing groups which set them apart from most general contractors
- They promote innovation and technology and give you ALL the tools and training to your hearts content. Which translates into a group of highly-talented and successful builders across the board. Many other contractors withhold these types of training's and technologies which does not promote growth.
- Large, high-profile, & fast paced projects have you surrounded in the endless ability to learn and work towards your career goals
- The company could not be what it is today without all the excellent, highly-motivated, talented, and high-caliber people which make it what it is todayCons
- Work/Life Balance can be a difficult objective to overcome on the fast-paced projects Webcor builds, however this is also what sets them apart from the competition and makes their employees so valuable.

"Good culture and team environment"
StarStarStarStarStarRecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOPros
I worked in the Alameda office on the administrative side of the company. Very good environment to work in, supervision is reasonable and allows you enough freedom and flexibility to get work done. Company is always looking ahead and trying to be a leader in the industry.
Cons
No significant cons; if you are interested in the industry, it is a great firm to be working for.

"Not a worthy company"

- Senior Management
Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Webcor full-time
Pros
Benefits are comparable to other companies in the same function, work presence seemed to be quite loose, with people ending their day at their discretion during regular business hours. Promotions were given to unqualified employees who had the better relationships.
Cons
People are afraid to express their opinions on the company, there is a great feeling of discomfort and not being appreciated in the workplace. The turnover rate for employees is very high. HR is not able to offer support, nor help the reversed hierarchy of this place (majority of seniors/executives). A lot of preaching about company culture from executives and senior HR yet not reflected in their actions, poor ability to manage properly and fairly amongst their people.

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI worked at Webcor full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
I had a very strong and positive experience at Webcor. The firm has some of the most smartest and high caliber building professionals in the industry. The project staff really care about the work they do and they work very hard. Peers serve as some of the best mentors and if you connect with the right one, you can learn a lot and advance in your career. The projects they build are big, complex and almost landmark like. It's exciting to be tied and connected to these types of projects. Benefits, perks, office locations and employee functions are very good!
Cons
Some upper level managers shouldn't be where they are and if anything, the jobs and departments are too upper management heavy. It almost makes you question what it is they actually do.
Advice to Management
I highly recommend better levels of upper/middle management reviews. There are some that really leave a bad taste in your project teams' mouths.
