Pros

The CEO, managers, and other employees care about each other. The people are friendly and care about the work they do. Crafton Tull is employee owned so each employee has a share in the companies success and they continue to add benefits with the new HR staff making positive changes.

Cons

Some managers can be over bearing and micro-managing. Some others are too hands off. It's a difficult balance to find the right amount of checking in on projects. More project management could be taught but it's more of a learn by doing setting, which I imagine many companies do.

The good old boy system still rules here.

Pros

The insurace was good, they always let you take off to handle family matters, and usually you had a truck with less than 100k miles.

Cons

The good old boy system is still alive and well. Office employees date higher ups, and receive immunity from big mistakes, while field hands have to deal with the blow back. Even the field hands are treated differently based on who they are. 1 guy will get wrote up or fired while someone else will be asked not to do that again. The hourly pay and the per diem is lower than expected. There is no organization, you are told to hurry up, get it done 5 minutes ago, but figure a way to be safe doing it. The office keeps hiring more office help because we are in a bind, but the quality and speed isn't realy increasing, at the same time, no extra field help is being brought in.

Pros

To be fair, If I could give a 2.5 - 2.7, I would. There are good people in this office, which work hard and help when they can. Well compensated They have an online training center called the pinnacle and some training through paylocity which is very helpful, definitely for anyone new in their career. There will be opportunities to get exposure to design and Civil engineering or whatever career you're in. Your experience will depend on what team you are in, whether your personality fits well within the office, and your drive with professionalism. There are some nice benefits as well, such as the insurance package and the wellness program.

Cons

Lack of clarity! Communication could have been a lot better! Could use more structure! There were times when I needed guidance and it was like pulling teeth to get it. I was willing to deal with all of this, but the last straw was when I became negative in my PTO, mostly because of back issues (bulging disk with signs of arthritis. My back went out on me one morning and I took off for two days, (alerted my team what the issue was and when I came back, I was met with a "write up" that I refused to sign. Note: I found a chiropractor, Physical therapist, mobility coach and working with the pain management team, to be healthy for myself and the team. Just for some context I later tried to reset the tone and come to a middle ground, but we weren't able to come to an agreement. So, if I lose the support of my mentor and leader then I shouldn't be there. Your experience might be different, or it might be the same, it depends.
