Pros

Lots of work to do, lots of support and training available, interesting global work exchange program.

Cons

First paycheck is manual and mailed via usps. If you start at the beginning of the pay period you go almost a month without pay. Also benefits are below par for the area: 2 weeks vacay a year, 5 sick days. The standard in PDX is now 3 weeks and if you're sick,stay home (within reason; the alternative is to offer 20 days pto)

Pros

They have a lot of work to do

Cons

Absent culture, management system, and very behind IT program. Everyone is only out for themselves. Massive issue when corporate meets construction, managers don’t understand scopes, staffing plans, decent business practice, etc.
