Pros

-Employee owned company -Good benefits, company doing well (profitable) as a whole

Cons

-Very poor work life balance -No flexibility in terms of scheduling -Management doesn't care about your life or your schedule, you're just expected to drop everything in your life and be available to work 24/7 -A lot of overnight travel with very little notice

Pros

You have sustainable hours for construction but there is mandatory overtime (The most I’ve done is 51 hours in a week), they pay you enough to live on, it’s good experience, upper management pays lip service to workers rights, there is genuine concern and regulation from management to provide you an emotionally and physically safe place to work, you’re never really rushed to do your job, and you do have the right to stop work

Cons

You need a degree in engineering or geology to move up and you have to threaten to move offices or take another job to get a pay raise. It’s not unionized.
