Phipps is 100% employee owned. This is reflected in the executive transparency, drive and motivation of the employees, strong company culture and genuine family atmosphere exhibited at all levels of the organization.
Construction is a demanding industry right now and Phipps recognizes this by actively investing in the best interest of the employee owners. 
Working here does feel more like a family than the vast majority of similarly sized firms. Speaking of size, they are small enough that you will meet and engage with all levels of management on a frequent basis but large enough to have connections and sway in the regional market.
They have a well deserved reputation of fairness and objectivity from their clients AND most importantly from the subcontractor base. Its wonderful to hear how much subs appreciate working with Phipps on a regular basis.
Compensation is competitive but the benefits make GHP really shine. Being an employee owned company there are stock options in addition to a bonus most years which is substantial. Combined with the competitive salary the overall compensation is above and beyond their competitors in this market.

Phipps is a good employer who will give you a good sense of belonging and a long-term job that you can feel somewhat secure in. The bad is really bad if you are a high-level achiever. The salary is very average and the idea is being an ESOP company, you earn a decent amount through that. But I need to pay the bill today and 10-15k below market price is not helping me. Also, growth is slow and promotion/raises are hard to come by. The management has changed recently and it is still evolving. 

Typical day was arriving 15 minutes early, preparing coffee for the day, answering phones, greeting new clients and staff.  Mail, general office work.

Hardest part of the job was the girl that was running the show always had a headset on to answer the phones.  I found out later her previous job was at Starbucks.

The most enjoyable part of the job was meeting new people

LOVE my experience so far with GH Phipps. The work culture is amazing - love my team and everyone here is hardworking and teamwork oriented. Great training opportunities. I don't feel like a number, I feel like a valued employee. The benefits are competitive for a small/midsize company. Denver office is in a great location!

This company is very focused on the employee and often goes beyond the required to provide extras for them. Most people like each other and like the job. Everyone is proud of what we build. Upper management has been here a long time, which can be good but also limits their ideas about how things can be done.

If the department head likes you you will go far. Upper-level management typically plays favorites and assigns workloads disproportionately. Training leaves much to be desired. Benefits are good, pay is slightly below average for industry. Advertised as a company with "family values" that does not lay off their people when times are rough, laid off large percentage of employees during the pandemic.

GH Phipps has been a great place to work and the company culture there is some of the best I’ve seen! This is an ESOP company so each person works exceptionally hard to ensure the success of everyone in the company and everyone is always willing to help out and teach the newer employees any skills they might need. Great place for growth and great place to feel appreciated for the work you do.

I am excited to have joined this company. Great people, and an exciting array of projects. For those who want to be a number, or just collect a paycheck, I would recommend seeking another company. This company is the best I've worked for in the Colorado market (A-E-C).

They are transitioning from a small contract or to a large contractor.  This was done without much planning so there is a lot of chaos now.  Everyone is pleasant to work with.
Benefits aren't that good.
This is an Employee Owned company, however, acts very much like a corporation.

Worked as a Project Engineer in the special projects division fresh out of college.  It was a good place to get diverse experience fast.  Overall the culture was great  and the fact that the company is employee owned is a huge plus.  Only left because I did not want to stay in the Denver area.  Overall I highly recommend Phipps.
