Stay away from this Company - Senior Project Manager Razz Construction Employee Review

I cant think of any

Bad communication The work enviorment can get very toxic

Compensation was consistent with industry. Some diversity in scope.

The owner of Razz has a reputation for being dishonest and cheating his way through projects. This is known throughout the NW region among public works owners, other contractors, and private companies. According to longer-term admin staff, the owner of Razz has hired and lost close to 20 project estimators and project managers in the previous 5 years. While at this company, I was asked on at least 4 separate occasions to do things considered illegal. When discussing with the owner a concern for legality, he would justify that only he was legally responsible, and would not consider the reputation of anyone involved. The owner also employs several of his relatives as craft personnel. One of which, his brother, he has knowledge of coming in to work intoxicated, but he does nothing about it. Current project managers with the company actively minimize the owner's role in projects, to minimize problems and avoid lack-integrity direction. During my job interview, we had basically discussed everything in agreeable terms to the extent I was being offered the job, and I was leaning toward accepting. At that time, it was explained to me that the salary was a 50 hr/wk base salary. In hind-sight, 50 hr/wk minimum schedule does not allow much work/life balance. The company I am with now pays more with better benefits, and I am on 40 hr/wk schedule.
