Turner is a very large international firm and I am sure with all that volume, you will get less than desirable people on the job. I've had my dealings with some lets just say "interesting" people out of the NY office, never fails. One thing I did not like at all, when I was on the contracting side, was they would push hard to to change orders, a hook and bait scenario, then they'd put a clean up superintendent on the job towards the end,somehow the change orders get lost or you are not entitled, for a contractor it could be a significant loss, claim or legal battle, arbitration, mediation and or litigation. There are all kinds of "Turner'isms" for sure, it does happen, I was on one job and I had a pair of superintendents at each others throat over ceiling access panels, left on a friday and told them, we will be installing them as per shop drawings, contract drawings, but I said this super said these are the changes, the other disagreed, well fellas, they go in monday, have a nice weekend, this kinda crap I don't deal with, better be in writing and legitimate. The one super was thrown off the job, the weekly meetings were profane language infused confrontations, insulting and the exhibition of the most unprofessional behavior I have ever seen on a jobsite, you would expect so much more from a annual multi billion dollar operation. Not always the case, you will get just as many good people on the jobs, but every job is different.
