Pros

They have interesting projects and give you different things. Are willing to spend an absurd amount of money to maintain a schedule.

Cons

If you are an experienced hire do not join here. They don't care if you have decades of experience as a PM/CM/upper management it doesn't matter because you didn't grow in the Kiewit system and you will regress in your career. It's a known thing they actually speak about. Also pure chaos. Schedules are a suggestion and not properly linked or even available for viewing. It's a milestone date and you just run towards it ad-hoc in a very unprofessional manner. This is not a process driven company it's more brute force.

Pros

Able to work on cool projects and potential to make a lot of money with cola

Cons

If you're ambitious at all, I probably wouldn't recommend working here. The pay is decent and if you're willing to stick around for 20+ years, you'll likely do just fine. But for me, the pace was too slow, the work was boring, and I never felt like I was doing anything meaningful or driving real business impact. The company is very stable, but that stability comes with tradeoffs. Career progression felt like a slow grind, and there was always the possibility of being forced to relocate depending on business needs. Personally, if you're young, motivated, and want to accelerate your career, I'd look for a role where you're directly contributing to growth, revenue, or strategic decision-making. If you're set on finance/FP&A, Kiewit can be a good place to spend a year and build experience, but I'd use it as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination. Just my experience. —it just wasn't for me. - stayed 2 years - too long.
