Pros
I have been with Kleinfelder for over 17 years. When I joined, we had great growth, strong pride in our work and were highly profitable. Right around the recession of 2008, we went through a CEO change and the firm regressed into a period of stagnation for about 6 years . In 2016, the Board of Directors initiated a leadership change bringing in a new CEO George Pierson. Mr. Pierson then quickly put a new leadership team in place bringing in a new CFO, HR director and three Division directors (East, West, Central). Under stronger leadership across the entire enterprise, the firm is now back on the growth curve with much better profitability. More importantly, the new leadership team supports a healthy balance between profitability and employee investment/development.
Cons
While the overall benefit programs are good, the 401(k) matching program is one thing that could be improved.
