Pros

The company gives you a lot of freedom depending on what department you work in. They are understanding of emergencies, appointments, private/personal needs, etc. Very willing to reimburse work-related expenses.

Cons

I didn't really feel like my position was going to develop into anything further - maybe raises but never more authority. Very cliquey. There's definitely an inner circle. I personally thought there seemed to be a lot of sexual relations within the company. In my opinion, the place was ran like a frat house. Lots of beautiful women and partying/drinking (even during the day at work). Lots of "head turning" by the higher ups - to things I personally think would be "red flag" to other CEO's/managers/bosses.

Monteith Construction Response

First, thank you for the feedback. We value and respect the opinions of every employee at Monteith Construction. Complacency is not in our DNA, and it is through feedback like this that we work to continuously to improve. As we hire, we bring in great people who make great decisions, and we trust those employees with freedom. We are glad to see that mission resonated with your time at Monteith. Sometimes freedom and flexibility are at odds with structure. As a company we are looking for the right balance of both. From a recent employee survey, we found that an area of growth was to provide a clearer career path for all employees, and we are currently in the process of implementing this change. From that same employee survey, we found that 92% of people both enjoy working with their coworkers and are proud to work at Monteith Construction. We are sorry to hear that neither of these sentiments applied to your experience. We respect your opinion, and we will continue to make Monteith an excellent place to work, where people enjoy one another and are proud to be a part of our team. We wish you the best in your future endeavors. Again, thank you for the feedback.
