Pros

Excellent training especially for young engineers. Get to work on huge iconic jobs. Salary is very competitive if not better then most companies and also a benefit package not matched by many. The training recieved here may be one of if not the best in the industry. Having this company on your resume will look very good in the future if you choose not to work for this company down the road. Every other construction company in the US and canada will recognize you as a strong canidate for employment down the road based on the work and training you were exposed to at Kiewit.

Cons

Get ready to work some serious hours. Salary is good but hourly rate would actually end up being fairly low due to no overtime or extra compensation for going above and beyond.

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.
