Pros

Brand recognition Wide varity of product Good benifits

Cons

This post is about the eastern commercial construction division only. After 6 months only, the management was an absolute nightmare and micromanaging a daily routine. There is no room for personal growth or creativity because if you dare to give your input, you will be squashed. The constant yelling and the psychological harassment have been used serval times. I have addressed this matter at the HR that the old-fashioned ineffective methods were no longer the right way to manage people. Things where changing for a couple of days and they kept coming back afterwards. No doubt in my mind that this is a Narcissistic Personality Disorder type of management because this type of managers value themselves by belittling others. Nevertheless, if dismissing a narcissistic pervert helps restore harmony in the company in the short term, it is necessary to question the dynamics that allowed the toxic individual to climb the ladder in the company.

Pros

-People here are great, I made friendships that go beyond the job. -The benefits are pretty good, employee contributions are on the lower end. I also appreciate the PTO day for community service and the fitness reimbursement plan. -I love the employee events like birthday treats (when they still had them) and the holiday party

Cons

-There is little to no internal promotion opportunities anymore. When roles have opened up, they have gone to external candidates, or they bring someone in from the location in Europe. -Patchy communications from corporate, as well as corporate boasting the record-breaking profits on the internet, and then our bonuses would get cut - left a bad taste in everyone's mouth. -Salaries are pretty frugal -Senior management seem to be in a micromanagement mindset and caring about the wrong things -HR and management have made some bad choices when it comes to employees lately that I don't agree with
