Pros

Good work environment in the office. Occasionally you have a flexible schedule. Can use time worked on reports as billable hours.

Cons

Forced to work overtime with little or no notice. Unexpected travel. I personally was assigned to a project 3 hours away for 4 months. They don't respect what is happening with your personal life.

Pros

You have sustainable hours for construction but there is mandatory overtime (The most I’ve done is 51 hours in a week), they pay you enough to live on, it’s good experience, upper management pays lip service to workers rights, there is genuine concern and regulation from management to provide you an emotionally and physically safe place to work, you’re never really rushed to do your job, and you do have the right to stop work

Cons

You need a degree in engineering or geology to move up and you have to threaten to move offices or take another job to get a pay raise. It’s not unionized.
