Pros

When you decide to leave Turner or not even work at Turner

Cons

Behind closed doors, Turner Construction in DC/MD/VA has an Antiquated Harsh work philosophy and a outdated day to day process. A culture of “I've worked here for 10 - 15+ years so I know more than you do”. “We’ve always done it this way, so that's how it's done”. They mislead clients and sub contractors with unrealistic low budgets. It's really sad to see this once great company going down a similar path as Enron and they refuse to look in the mirror. The VA office hasn't won a project in 1.5 years! And the leadership has no clue on how to win work. Sub contractors dislike working for Turner in DC/MD/VA. There's so much harsh stuff going on at Turner.
