Best GC by far but remember, it is construction

Pros

The treatment of employees is exceptional. One of the coolest parts about DPR is their willingness to find a plcae for you in the company, even if itd not your current role. They provide a lot of events for employees and families as well. As a company, they try very hard to hire people with a modern approach to construction.

Cons

Only reason I don't give 5 stars is because as follows. Remember, it is construction. Long hours, weekends, late nights, high stress, minimal work-life balance. As a construction company, DPR truly is a 5-star place to work. My only complaint is their lack of training for new hires and people with little to no construction experience.
