Pros: I really valued the work flexibility offered at STEP, especially when managing multiple project sites in the Williamsport, PA area.

The project management team was collaborative, and senior leadership was generally open to problem-solving. There were decent opportunities for learning and career growth, taking on challenging new
Cons: While the work flexibility was a big plus, sometimes communication across different departments, like procurement and field operations, could be a little disjointed. This occasionally led to delays or rework, impacting project timelines. Also, the approval process for larger budget changes could be slow, which can be frustrating when you're trying to keep a construction project on schedule and within budget.
Advice to Management: Focus on streamlining inter-departmental communication, especially between project management, field supervision, and the procurement teams to avoid unnecessary delays on construction sites.
