EMJ Reviews

Pros

Bought us lunch a lot lol

Cons

As my first job out of college, I was expecting to learn a lot/have some one to mentor me, but instead I was just "told" to do something when I had never done it before! I wrote a $1 million change order with 0 direction, and all I got in return was questions as to why it took so long. They also have 0 connections/relationships to the greater Boston area so you had to be willing to go way out of state to work on projects

Pros

There are some good people there . I can count one one hand who those people are .

Cons

Work you to death with no down time . They take you away from your family then let you go home for a day then half to come back for 2 weeks . I personally was a assistant super doing superintendent work did my job almost lost my family do to the work load then completed the project with no problems and at the end of the job the "layed me and 4 other great guys off " so what you get for completing tasks is they let you go. I personally would not send anyone there to work . Upper management is ran by men who only want to see there pockets get bigger while the lower guys do all the work . Not a fair company .

Pros

EMJ has a lot of tenured employees with excellent experience, a passion for this industry, and care/concern for their work product. People are very collaborative with one another and the company has really re-focused on the importance of the client experience. I enjoy coming to work every day - we have great events (recently a family one at the zoo). We have monthly status meetings and a weekly Blueprint that details everything going on at the company. If you aren't sure, you only have to ask someone - they will tell you.

Cons

I get some people are scared by the changes but they needed to happen. Frankly, those who aren't committed long-term should just not stay along for the ride. The company is really going in a great direction despite some growing pains.

Pros

For the most part employees are pleasant and friendly and this allows for a lax social environment. The compensation is fair and the company is willing to help individual employees with personal hardships.

Cons

EMJ loves to preach about transparency and honesty with its employees but in most situations does not communicate company changes with the employees. There is some hostility towards management for seeming smug, entitled, and evasive. Overall, EMJ is stuck in its antiquated ways and unwilling to let the workplace and it's culture evolve to fit a modern lifestyle. The software and procedures are redundant and hours/rules are overly-strict.

Pros

There was alot of different project types you could work on.

Cons

Leadership did not follow through on commitments. Long work hours and low pay. You are more of a number to them than a name

Pros

Great company to work for, a lot of growth & a good amount of opportunities.

Cons

Changing of program implementation, need to work on training more.
