Pros
- Exposure to large and complex projects. - Reasonably good work–life balance — not many late nights. - Office-based teams are generally friendlier and easier to work with than site teams.
Kontras
- Extremely behind in BIM and digital construction — very little real investment in technology or modern workflows. - Overly bureaucratic: even simple software license approvals take ages and require people with no technical knowledge to “vote” on decisions. - Very tight with budgets for technology and software tools. - Heavy micromanagement culture with little trust or autonomy. - Many long-time employees resistant to change or new ideas — stuck in outdated ways of working. - Overreliance on Excel sheets and manual documentation instead of integrated systems. - Some individuals, especially on-site, can be rude or condescending, creating a difficult work atmosphere.
