Pros

Great company to work for ,Vary safety oriented, , decent pay , nice tools , benefits , lots of other professional trades to work with.

Cons

No 15 minute breaks While working in Arizona where the temperature on the slab could reach 120. Only 1 lunch break not paid no cooldown breaks already people have been over heating management stays in air conditioned trailers all day and they come outside for 5 minutes we don't have a lunch room or and cooldown shack for the trades, trades get treated like garbage. People act like mocho men say we don't have to cool off. Management seems to except that this is ok . When I think pcl has much high standards . You should be offered a 15 minute break to cool off.
