THE OCL ADVANTAGE

• Employee Ownership - Fosters a culture of ownership, integrity, accountability and desire for group success.

• 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”.
