Pros: I've appreciated the strong sense of camaraderie on the job sites. My colleagues at CS Erickson are genuinely good people who look out for each other, which makes tackling tough projects much more manageable. Management is usually practical and supportive, focused on getting the work done safely and efficiently. There's a good opportunity to learn hands-on skills and see projects through from start to finish.
Cons: While the team environment is great, communication can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, especially during peak project phases. Information doesn't always flow as smoothly as it could between different departments or sites. Also, some approval processes can feel a little slow, which can impact efficiency on fast-paced construction jobs. It's not a place with a lot of corporate hierarchy, but clarity could be improved.
Advice to Management: Focus on streamlining inter-departmental communication and approval workflows to enhance overall project efficiency. More proactive updates to field teams regarding project changes or potential delays would be highly beneficial.

Pros: I appreciated the hands-on experience I gained as a Project Coordinator here. The projects were interesting and challenging, which kept things engaging. My immediate team was great, very collaborative and always willing to help out, which made day-to-day tasks manageable. The company does a decent job of ensuring project deadlines are met.
Cons: Communication from senior leadership can be a bit sparse, making it hard to understand the bigger picture or longer-term company direction. Opportunities for formal career growth felt limited, and sometimes it seemed roles were filled based on immediate needs rather than development paths. Better structured feedback would be beneficial for professional development.
Advice to Management: Focus on improving transparent communication from leadership regarding strategic goals and individual career development paths. More structured feedback sessions would greatly benefit employees.
