I started my journey at JDC in January 2022, I’m one of the crew leads/Foreman. I specialize in the framing and concrete work (bone structure of the build). I enjoy working at JDC as they recognize you for your ability’s and push you to grow in the company. They have full trust in their employees and very minimal micro management. I must say I have worked for many construction company’s and at JDC I enjoy coming to work every day over any of my previous jobs. I enjoy all the guys and girls in the company it’s a great atmosphere. It’s more of a family here then just employees. Before working at JDC I always thought it was about the money, take the job who’s going to pay you the most, I soon realized it’s not all about the money but how you are treated and respected within the company. I now would rather go home to my family at the end of the day in a great mood. JDC is a great company to work for with all the company events and the appreciation they show to their employees!
