6 am My day always starts with getting the job site viewed before work and make sure all sign offs off been completed. Next will include White Board Meeting to discuss current work and scheduling.Next is the Field walk and report of needed items to coach and correct. Look at Crane Picks for day. (Lift Plans) (Hot Work) Confined Space issues, Fall Pro questions, and sign offs.  Followed by the writing of needed reports to Trade partners and safety professionals. Time to check current emails notes and answer all questions and concerns. Conduct safety leads mtg. and discuss all hot topics to improve work conditions and site. Afternoon field walk with Superintendents to help reduce more obvious issues in field before Audits and reports are implied. PTP Audits and equipment Audits, along with reports on how each trade is performing . Trouble shoot any questions through out the day, Report any 1st aid and investigate each as it develops. Attend paneled Investigations with customer and General. Prepare for Tool Box Topics for next morning. Answer phone until it quits ringing, usually around 5 pm  Absolutely a fantastic challenge, and Project. Management backing Safety all the way. Very Low incident rate, Lowest amount of first aids ever. Crew and trades worked in a close tight environment, with patience and understanding across the site.

Over all I enjoyed the company and its focus on its employees and Benefits. As for my local managment I believe there is room for improvement as I did not feel appreciated, valued, and often taken advantage of. I felt my knowledge and skill sets were over utilized and undervalued. In 5 years I should tremendous growth and eagerness to move up while constantly being told it was not justifiable. All while watching others around me be promoted constantly and outside hires. I spent 5 years taking classes and getting certifications to better myself for future roles that always seemed out of reach. Constantly told by upper management I had potential, skills, and knowledge no one else had, while being trusted with higher role responsibilities, without title and compensation change. This is all my experience with local management and feel maybe if I was in a different region things may have been different. 

      Again I loved my job, the company, and its benefits. Just felt held back in my roles. 

I’ve been working at JE Dunn for a while now, and overall, it’s been a great experience. The company has a strong work ethic and a real commitment to quality, which is something I value. Management is approachable and offers good support, and there's a strong sense of teamwork among the crew. They provide the necessary tools and resources to get the job done safely and efficiently, which is always appreciated in a construction environment.

The pay and benefits are solid, and they do a good job recognizing employees for their hard work. While there’s room for improvement in communication between some departments, the leadership is open to feedback and consistently strives to improve operations.

The work can be demanding, as expected in this field, but there’s a good balance between being challenged and having the support needed to succeed. I’ve learned a lot during my time here, and I feel like I have room to grow professionally. It’s not always perfect, but it’s a company I would recommend to anyone looking to build a career in construction.

Lol

JE Dunn is a respected construction company. Very busy and fun. Prepared contracts, correspondence and owner billing. The employees out in the field were always friendly and very upbeat. In the office was a little harder. I worked with three other project coordinators that were best friends since they were in junior high. Unprofessional in the way they dressed (lots of cleavage). Attended owner meetings, project start-up meetings and prepared the notes and reports. My favorite time of the day/week was spent out in the field as quality control inspecting the final project and detailing what needed to be finished, what was done well and if necessary be re-done.

Overseeing day to day operations of construction project, while maintaining a safe work environment.

Having the ability to coordinate unforeseen issues during the course of the project.

Coordinating several different subcontractors during the task at hand. 

Most difficult part of my day to day operations, was scheduling my next task ( plumbers / electricians ) and not having the subcontractors / material show up .

The most enjoyable part of the job was getting everyone to work as a team . Take ownership of the project and hear the client say job well done .

Great company with great people. They have their flaws like any [big] company as well as a few long-term workers that probably should not be in leadership positions due to their refusal to learn new technology. Most are willing to learn the new tech, especially the field workers which is awesome! Fun place but high stress due to never-ending workload amount but that can be a positive thing if you're in the right positions at the right time. 

I work in a team-based environment but with the flexibility to work independently as well. I came into this job last year with a little bit of safety construction experience, so I have learned so much & continue to learn something new every single day. This company offered training classes to expand our knowledge. Management treats everyone equally...with enormous amount of respect and interest in you as an individual. The co-workers are kind, intelligent, professional and work together towards a common goal. JE DUNN Construction Company is a top notch, Class A organization!
