Pros

Great work environment. Starting pay is ok Constant advancement I have hardly worked the same role for 4 months without moving on to something else. Learn your job well enough to train your replacement and then move on to something else.

Cons

I always here this TIME thing. How much time you spend at work is how dedicated you are to your job. I work 45 to 50 hours a week right now and that is not enough. Constant threat of a transfer. I keep on saying no and eventually I will have to accept lower advancement opportunity or get a new job. Future pay is lower than industry average but they dangle the company stock option at you.

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.
