Pros

Most people who work for Skanska have are proffesional, helpful and approachable, there is plenty of opportunity and an ethical approach to business. Benefits include 28 days holiday, company car and decent salaries. A forward thinking contractor with a (mostly) deserved arrogance about it's standing.

Cons

If project based you will be moved around from place to place evry few years, which of course comes with the nature of the work, alot of people live away from home during the week or have very long commutes. The head office is not close to a railway station or any restaurants/bars, this leads to a lack of socialising events outside of work hours and may not suit younger employees.

Pros

The DC group is definitely on the up. Recent hires have been plentiful but very beneficial to the momentum of the office. Projects are interesting and challenging. Great use of incorporating technology and modern building techniques. Work life balance is very fair so far. They really do value employees, safety and their strong morals.

Cons

Big corporation, so red tape, politics, etc. come with the territory. Foreign owned- Take that as you will, but the Europeans are definitely ahead of us in many ways and it helps to have this tie to the business on an international scale. Lots of new hires from engineers up through management.
