It's one of the companies that value the safety of their employees.
Cons
We are expected to work overtime during peak months but often don't get 40 hours per week during off-peak months.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. While we always work to provide as much stability as we possibly can for our team, we understand the challenges that go with the scheduling fluctuations that can happen as we meet the demands for various projects. We value feedback from our team as we are always trying to improve to meet their needs.
You get exposed to everything related to construction. Everyone is very helpful in getting you up to speed with the project and gives you a good start to being a well-rounded APM if your career goals is to be in the Construction Project Management industry. They also take summer interns to their main headquarters to meet the executives and other interns, good way to network.
Cons
If you're an engineering major, you don't really get to practice much engineering knowledge you learn in school, but you still learn a lot of new things in construction.

Thank you for leaving a rating and your comments. We are very pleased to hear that you've had a positive experience during your internship with Harris! We wish you the best as you continue your journey.
Beyond expectations. Minimal training to be proficient with the expectations. No concept on family time vs work. GM is all about sales and has no construction knowledge. He has no idea on what it takes to do the work and get projects completed. Plumbing and Mechanical division field personel had their own agendas and does not work for the company. Sheet metal division has a great superintendent and good GF. Building Automation only has 1 person that knows all. The unfortunate thing is Harris expects Josh to be all do all. This company runs on the principle complete 90% and spend another 30% to get to the finish line.
