The formation of OCL was a direct result of a few long-tenured industry professionals with entrepreneurial spirits, wanting to get back to their roots and build an organization where people matter.

THE OCL ADVANTAGE

• Employee Ownership - Fosters a culture of ownership, integrity, accountability and desire for group success.
• Flexibility - Intrinsically motivated, “A” players don’t need to be micromanaged. They work hard because they want themselves and the Company to succeed. These types of employees enjoy increased levels of autonomy and flexible schedules.
• Work Hard, Play Hard Culture - We pride ourselves on being a FUN place to work! We work hard but know how to have a good time too! We frequently gather as a group to celebrate wins, holidays and individual milestones.
• Entrepreneurial Mindset - We are always looking for opportunities to expand our business and diversify! We take calculated risks, foster innovation and make quick decisions because we operate in a very low bureaucracy environment.
• Small Business/Family Feel - With the capacity to handle complex, multi million-dollar projects and grow our workforce to over 1500 people quickly, we compete with large General Contractors but pride ourselves in our ability to maintain a “small business/family feel”. We have blue collar roots, so our casual environment and commitment to our hard-working men and women in the trades is key to our success.
