Pros

Good PTO, profit sharing plan.

Cons

No fertility coverage. This is disappointing for such a large company and not the norm in Illinois where fertility coverage is mandated for companies with over 50 employees. Since Mortenson is headquartered in Minneapolis, they are not required to provide this coverage. This makes the Chicago office benefit package less competitive compared to their peers in the construction market. I wouldn't recommend the company to females because of this.

Pros

- Huge company with a lot of resources. - Cool projects.

Cons

- Pay is not great especially for the amount of hours they want you to put in. - They do not pay for experience. So, it’s a good place to start, but if you have experience, go somewhere else. - They hire and promote way too quickly which means inexperienced people are in charge. - If you work in the field, you will be putting in 50-60 hours a week often and they justify it by saying you get subsistence. Do the math, you’re not getting paid very well at those hours even with subsistence. Also subsistence is a benefit for traveling, not justification for overusing employees. - While a lot of the people are good, it is a very political atmosphere.
