Pros

- Salary is good - A good level of freedom to get on with your work is granted - Colleagues are generally supportive when help is required - The values and ethics of the organisation are very good - Training opportunities are available (but there is not much guidance on who they are targeted at and how they will benefit the individual) - Benefits are good - The executives of the organisation are honest about the performance and direction of the organisation

Cons

- To progress in the organisation it is a case of "if your face fits" or "who you know" - There is little engagement between Project Director level staff and those beneath them, other than for time critical reactive project issues - project communication is poor - A lot of the work is reactive and there is very little opportunities for staff to suggest improvements or better ways of working - Some managers do not have effective leadership credentials - The work is boring and tedious, there is a graveyard like atmosphere daily

Pros

They have a lot of work to do

Cons

Absent culture, management system, and very behind IT program. Everyone is only out for themselves. Massive issue when corporate meets construction, managers don’t understand scopes, staffing plans, decent business practice, etc.
