Business Outlook

Pros

Generally an okay company to work for, somewhat flexible depending on role, usually understanding of challenges as they arise and getting you help, unless they dont, somewhat disorganized and basically like every other construction management company I've worked for. Selling point is that they self-perform, which sometimes is more of a curse than a blessing, it doesn't necessarily make them more competitive and the older style of them negotiating much of their work is diminishing now that the markets are becoming more competitive.

Cons

The company has changed in the last 5 or 10 years from my experience and understanding, it's become much more corporate. It can be seen and heard in the "messaging" that upper and middle management now preach on a regular basis. The company has become more disorganized as it's grown and there are cliques as usual. It's really not that much different from any other company.
