Pros

PCL's IT department, known as Business Technology, is led by a CIO who has a vision and a strategy to ensure that technology and business solutions provide value and cost effectiveness to its shareholders and business stakeholders. If you enjoy challenges and opportunity, work here. If you enjoy being a nine to fiver, collecting a pay check and a dividend payout AND fear being held accountable, continue airing your grievances on social media sites.

Cons

A recent review on GlassDoor paints an inaccurate, negative picture of PCL and BT. I have been in BT as an analyst for but a few short years. Negative comments about the CIO I have heard are made by staff who are long term employees with many shares, an axe to grind, a fear of change, and a strange notion of entitlement. Rather than offering constructive ideas, they continue to complain and do nothing more than collect their pay, bonus and dividends, year after year. I am fortunate to work at PCL and in the Business Technology group. The CIO has provided his staff opportunity that I, personally, want to seize.
