civil engineer

Job Description

I work on various construction projects. Our company are the owners of these projects and we hire contractors to do the work. I work in the administrative end...filing, paying the bills, writing change orders, etc. No stress at all and great people to work with.

Pros

People I work with are great..very professional and dedicated to their jobs. Since I work in construction, there is a lot of flexibility. I'm able to go to the jobsite to check on the project and stay indoors to do office work. Management doesn't really micro-manage so there's plenty of freedom to get your work done.

Great benefits toward retirement and medical/dental services.

Cons

The pay isn't that great compared to other companies and the work isn't all that interesting. There is plenty to learn if you are passionate about this line of work but since I'm not really into engineering, I'm not all that interested.
