The foreman was excellent to work for.The pace was not pushed but you had to get the job done to stay ahead of the contractors. Sometimes dusty from contractors machines. I enjoyed working there.

Pros

You weren't pushed

Cons

Long hours and was paid semi monthly

Great place to work and become well rounded

Engineer (Current Employee) - Fredericton, NB - 26 October 2017

I am a current employee of GEMTEC and it is a great company to work for. There is a small firm feel between coworkers but the security of a large firm. When I started with GEMTEC 7.5 years ago I had little experience but they were quick to put me into situations to gain experience and provide guidance when needed. One thing that could be perceived to be a con may be that the summers and falls are very busy with winters generally slowing down. I find this is great as hit pushes me to complete tasks when it is busy and gives an opportunity to explore new ways of working, and get training during the slower times of the winter. GEMTEC is very flexible with any vacation time I have needed despite the season, and management is understanding of peoples home life as well. There will always be hard days at any job but that makes it even more enjoyable when the job is complete.

Supportive & Great Time Environment

Geotechnical Materials Engineer (Current Employee) - Moncton, NB - 6 February 2017

GEMTEC hired me without a job opening or even expertise in my field. The first few months involved cross training and experience in the lab, field, with the environmental team and with the geotechnical team. The company gave me the resources and opportunity to update credentials and supported my desire to diversify the company service profile to utilize my expertise. I was offered excellent mentorship, responsibility and flexible work hours. This is the first company I've ever worked for that honoured overtime with salaried employees!!
