because of the
construction company’s largescale projects, but during the
interview and onboarding process,
it is the culture that really draws
them in.
“It’s our values, like authenticity,
excellence, adaptability,
innovation and love,” says

For example, each job family
has a defined career path. “You
know exactly what you need to do
to get to the next step depending
on your goals, whether it’s a

that clarity.”
Samuel Ross, project manager,
agrees that the Pomerleau values,
fully embodied on worksites
across Montréal, truly reflect daily
life at the company. “I think that is
what I am most proud of — that
Pomerleau has those values in our
mentality.”
He points to adaptability as his
favourite Pomerleau value. “When
we have challenges arise from the
many complex tasks we perform,
we shift into solution mode with
a positive energy and attitude
to respond to the changing
situation,” he says. “This industry
is always evolving, and we adapt to
meet any challenges.”
Duvoisin says he is proud to be
part of a company that has such a
large impact on the city. “I'm super
proud when I'm driving and I see
some of our prominent projects
built in collaboration with our
partners, like the replacement of
the roof at Olympic Stadium or
the extension of the Blue Line of
the Métro. It shapes the city and
helps the community.”
To ensure employees feel truly
valued for their contributions,
Pomerleau continues to enhance
its range of meaningful benefits
and perks. Most recently, the
company launched an employee
share purchase program, giving
team members the opportunity to
invest directly in Pomerleau — a
privately owned company. “This
is a powerful way to recognize
everyone’s contribution and to
thank them for being part of our
journey,” Duvoisin says.
