Pros

Varied and interesting work, some commercial, health care and institutional. Not engaged in shady business practices.

Cons

The President (and upper management). Everything runs on her whim. Senior executives almost afraid to go to the bathroom without her permission. She actually told me that the COO "didn't have the authority" to make a REALLY minor decision. Micro-manages employees to death, rules change almost hourly and many hours and days are wasted on wild goose chases initiated by the President, under extreme pressure to deliver impossible results. Expect 60 hour work weeks and dirty looks if you leave the office before 6:30 PM. If this was my first job out of college, I would have quit the industry and went back to grad school.

Cauldwell-Wingate Response

We are pleased to announce that Cauldwell Wingate recently merged with Bravo Builders and is not the same Cauldwell Wingate as when these reviews were posted. There is a new leadership in place and a great culture led by Robert Palumbo. The new leadership team has taken a strong brand name and built an even stronger organization the “new” Cauldwell. It is a great place to work, with new offices, a fresh corporate culture and new professional “perks” such as outdoor lounge space, snacks in the workplace, team building events, celebrations and opportunities for professional advancement.
