Pros
Great management and fast-paced work environment. You will be expected to contribute to the team from day one. Project managers are experienced in civil design and very familiar with the codes and regulations pertinent to their fields. Management does an excellent job in developing young engineers and familiarizing them with civil engineering design standards and guidelines. Promotions come often as a new employee. The benefits and compensation offered at Pape-Dawson are second to none. Managers are more than willing to give you time off to spend with family as long as quality work is being completed in a timely manner. Pape-Dawson is an organization that truly cares about you and your family's well-being. Overall, a great company to work for. I would recommend Pape-Dawson to anyone interested.
Cons
Work load can be a little overwhelming. However, project managers do an excellent job at dividing up work and managing time.
