Pros

Very oriented when it comes to doing a quality job in a safe manner. Have gone out of their way to provide any and just about every tools necessary to perform our job(s) in the civil department.

Cons

Lack of or miscommunication on many levels; plenty of nepotism, favortism, and racism on the site. This may not be the overall view of the management, but the silence about it on the site is only an affirmation that it is accepted as a norm.
