Do what's right.

Everyone empties the trash.
To be heard, you have to say something.

Stay hungry.
Learn by listening.
Find the common ground.
Finish strong.
Make it fun.
Employee Spotlight
John Tompkins | Superintendent
Superintendent John Tompkins brings a positive outlook and jovial spirit to everything he’s a part of. From jumping in on RFP responses to being a featured guest on The Perlo Podcast, John doesn’t shy away from any job. He is a remarkable leader to Perlo’s younger generation of construction staff, showing a true interest in people and taking great pride in being a coach, teacher, and role model for the field and office alike. Well-spoken, knowledgeable, and flexible, John searches for ways to bring innovative solutions and added benefits to all his projects.
“Perlo is a place where individuals have the ability to soar as high as they want to. I can’t count the number of times I’ve been encouraged to run with a new idea, been helped along the way and found success.”
“I started at Perlo as a PM in the office, but preferred to be out in the field. Upper management was awesome about working with me and helping me achieve my goal of becoming a Superintendent.”
“Perlo has a very selfless culture. Everyone here is genuinely interested in your personal growth. I came here as an intern and they have taught me everything I know about managing construction projects. You just need to come here with an open mind and a willingness to learn.”
