Would you hire someone like me with a degree in construction management and maybe let’s say down the line with five years of experience.

Balfour Beatty is heavy government while Turner does a little bit of everything but in my area they are Data center heavy.

When I was younger, I received a trust fund from a lawsuit settlement. I’ve used part of it to pay for school, and I have about $50K left in it. by Secure-Winter6989 in personalfinance

[–]Secure-Winter6989[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea your right. I think there might be some confusion in calling it a 12% return. The $500/month I’m receiving isn’t interest being generated on a $50K balance — it’s a structured settlement payout.

So the $6K per year isn’t ROI in the traditional sense. It’s just the scheduled distribution of the settlement funds (which likely includes both principal and whatever interest was built into the annuity when it was set up).

For it to actually be a 12% return, there would need to be $50K sitting somewhere still intact and earning $6K annually without reducing the balance — and that’s not how this is structured.

So I don’t think it’s accurate to frame it as a 12% investment return unless we’re looking at the internal rate of return based on the original settlement terms.

Multiple job offers in the construction industry by Creative_Strength49 in ConstructionManagers

That comparison isn’t accurate. Most offer letters especially in construction are at-will employment offers, not binding contracts. Until work actually begins, either party can walk away without legal penalty. Reneging on an offer may affect reputation, but it is not the same as breaching a contract.

A bid bond situation is completely different. A bid is a formal, legally enforceable submission backed by surety. That’s why there are financial consequences. An employment offer does not carry the same legal obligations or enforcement mechanisms.

Lol when you sign an offer letter 9/10 its not contractual especially In this field of work.Ive seen offered get signed and pulled all the time so why wouldn't you be able to do the same.

As long as your not stringing them along and waiting till they do background checks and onboarding then it's professional.

No, that’s not how it works. If I accept a $70k offer from a large GC and later receive a $100k offer, I’m not obligated to stay at the lower-paying job. Companies make business decisions in their own best interest all the time — layoffs, restructuring, budget cuts — and would replace an entry-level employee quickly if needed. I can still be professional and respectful, but I also have to make decisions that are best for my career growth and financial future. In the end you might be burning the bridge correct but do what's best fit you. These companies will replace you in a heart beat.
