they will drain you - Finance Department United Infrastructure Group Employee Review

Got to work for a large company with vast amounts of resources.

Had to work in a construction trailer onsite.

Karma is a real thing.

This is a deeply entrenched family-owned business and loyalty is reserved almost exclusively for blood relatives. Nepotism is blatant and openly embraced as part of the "family values" culture—family members dominate leadership roles, making any real recourse for issues impossible. HR department is two people that have been together in other organizations and the toxicity exists there as well as they each talk about each other behind their backs forcing employees to remain silent and choose a side to trust, however neither are genuine or trustworthy. Skilled trades are treated with disrespect, lower pay, minority representation in leadership positions is non-existent. Layoffs are common and come without much warning or regard for tenure or performance. Experienced non-family employees (even those with decades of service) get cut regularly when projects slow or priorities shift to protect the inner circle. It creates constant anxiety—no real job security unless you're connected. The workplace culture is toxic in other ways too: inherently misogynistic (women frequently dismissed or overlooked in key decisions), with unchecked racist undertones in comments, jokes, and hiring/promotions even in the HR department if you can believe that. Management pushes "Christian values" and "excellence," but it's all window dressing for favoritism over merit. High expectations lead to burnout, poor work-life balance, and little support for employee well-being. HR prioritizes protecting family interests over fairness or equity. If you're not family, you're disposable. Advancement is rare without the right last name, and when cuts happen, outsiders bear the brunt. I stayed too long thinking loyalty might be reciprocated—it never is.
