Pros

I've worked in the tax department at Lehigh Hanson for nearly 4 years. The work/life balance is good. I rarely work over 40 hours a week. The people make the company, I think, and in this company, the people are great. There is a push for regular inter-department meetings, which is a big benefit. When AP and accounting can sit down and work together, it's a big deal. Lehigh Hanson values new ideas and has a program for submitting ideas to a review board. Many of these ideas are approved and implemented. The company has a good training program. Employees are valued by management, something you don't always get in a company.

Cons

Lehigh Hanson is still very old school with working hours and vacation. Employees are expected to work normal business hours and working from home is frowned upon. Vacation starts at 2 weeks, and finally gets up to 17 days after 15 years of service.

Pros

Good pay, good exposure. They are flexible on sick days but there could be challenging since its up to manager decision. Work life balance therefore could be affected.

Cons

Lack of flexibility 10 days PTOs are hard to keep up with the market. Benefits are good but can do better.
