Working in contracting companies is permissible, except for building factories and warehouses for alcoholic beverages and tobacco; this is forbidden due to the prohibition of cooperating in sin and aggression.
There is no harm in the questioner's work for the company as long as it is in the permissible field of contracting. He is not harmed by the company engaging in some forbidden activities, but if he is asked to perform work related to those forbidden activities, he must refuse.
