Pros

Great insurance and benefits! Business casual dress is always a plus. Owner Bill Black is great, takes time out for his employees. Training is thorough and managers are very supportive. Good place to develop your skills right out of college. Commission can be good if you're willing to work for it. Any concerns you take to upper management are quickly addressed.

Cons

Office manager was promoted based on seniority, not management skills. There were definitely management issues, office was poorly run, rules were sporadically enforced, it was a human resources nightmare. My boss tried very hard, but was often lost when it came to resolving these issues (due to lack of training). Also it's nearly impossible to get fired, which sounds like a pro but is really a con when you consider the people you'll be stuck working with. Regarding the reporting job, you will be searching for information/leads that your sources will want to keep confidential. Weakhearted need not apply. Additionally, job performance is completely based on health of the construction industry. If contractors don't have money to build, your ability to meet goals will suffer. There is a lot of industry competition from Dodge and Reed.
