Pros

Nothing to look forward too

Cons

The boss is a lier and a POS. The bodd is not even a surveyor. He's from the DOT and has no clue how the new technology works. This place will set you back years if you go there. I can't say thus again DO NOT WORK HERE. Im a union surveyor from nyc. I have fun expansive and complex jobs. At UIG they run these small little bridge jobs which is a cake walk compared to NYC. I was told I didn't know how to survey while yhe job I was on had a unbalanced traverse with two sets of numbers. Also the total station was last checked in 2014. When I found this out, it was the biggest embarrassment of my career. The 3rd party surveyor was in shock. They went 8 months with a bad total station and bent and damaged rods. The boss really had no idea about this stuff. Total embarrassment. The other surveyor on the beginning stages of a big job didn't know to to topo overhead wires or do line work. This person was shooting backsights with the DR. Totally insane stuff. Meanwhile with 25 years experience, I get laid off. Please stay away from this place. I'm begging you. Working at the SCDOT does not mean u know how to survey. To be against the new technology is the worst thing a company can do. This boss needs to be demoted to survey tech and let's see how he does. Lol. Stay away. Let's let this place go out of business. I'll be reaching out to the Charleston ports to let them know 8 months of work was done with a gun that was last checked in 2014

Pros

Karma is a real thing.

Cons

This is a deeply entrenched family-owned business and loyalty is reserved almost exclusively for blood relatives. Nepotism is blatant and openly embraced as part of the "family values" culture—family members dominate leadership roles, making any real recourse for issues impossible. HR department is two people that have been together in other organizations and the toxicity exists there as well as they each talk about each other behind their backs forcing employees to remain silent and choose a side to trust, however neither are genuine or trustworthy. Skilled trades are treated with disrespect, lower pay, minority representation in leadership positions is non-existent. Layoffs are common and come without much warning or regard for tenure or performance. Experienced non-family employees (even those with decades of service) get cut regularly when projects slow or priorities shift to protect the inner circle. It creates constant anxiety—no real job security unless you're connected. The workplace culture is toxic in other ways too: inherently misogynistic (women frequently dismissed or overlooked in key decisions), with unchecked racist undertones in comments, jokes, and hiring/promotions even in the HR department if you can believe that. Management pushes "Christian values" and "excellence," but it's all window dressing for favoritism over merit. High expectations lead to burnout, poor work-life balance, and little support for employee well-being. HR prioritizes protecting family interests over fairness or equity. If you're not family, you're disposable. Advancement is rare without the right last name, and when cuts happen, outsiders bear the brunt. I stayed too long thinking loyalty might be reciprocated—it never is.

Pros

Maybe just the free coffee.

Cons

Everybody here looks tired and unhappy. You either quit because you can’t take it anymore, or they find a reason to fire you. They dont care about you! Nobody talks unless they have to and when they do it’s fake. You try to keep your head down, but if you say anything at all, it turns into a rumor the next day. There is one person who is the worst for that. He gossips about everyone closes his door, but you can still hear him talking trash about people when you walk by.. Don’t bother talking to hr. He always looks annoyed when you try to talk to him. Doesn’t help with anything, They don’t train you, but they expect you to get everything right. And when you don’t, they’re quick to criticize It’s not a team. It’s a bunch of tired people trying to keep their jobs while pretending like everything’s fine.
