    Not worth it. The bad outweighs the good.
    The good thingsYou'll learn a lot of things, from conceptual design to construction drawings. You'll handle big projects.
    The challenges1. Discourages collaboration. Management views it as a waste of time. 2. Sees site visit as a waste of time which could have prevented some site problems. 3. Improper turnover but huge expectations on your knowledge of the project even when you just started. 4. No accountability in mismanaged teams and projects. 5. Doesn't care about employees' well-being. 6. No consent when they move you around teams. 7. Work culture expects you to do unpaid overtime to compensate for their lack of manpower. 8. Low compensation, basic benefits. HMO after 2 years.
