Pros

You get to work on interesting projects and you get a lot of exposure to different aspects of construction. There are a lot of opportunities and they are willing to train and groom if you're assertive and show you can handle more responsibility. The project teams have close relationships and are family oriented. The people are great and the organizational culture outside of work is very welcoming and active. There are a bunch of different intramural sports teams and volunteering events for those interested in extracurricular activities. Its a good way to make friends and make a big company small. The benefits are pretty good and you don't get any grief for taking time off.

Cons

During crunch time, the hours can get long and it's easy to get burnt out. It's not uncommon to work consecutive weekends. Some jobs are understaffed which makes it hard to have a good work-life balance. They're working on the evaluation process but constructive feedback isn't consistent. You don't get very much feedback on things you do well or on areas where you need improvement. Similarly, it's not clear what actions will lead to a promotion or conversely, what actions are keeping you from a promotion.

Pros

I've thoroughly enjoyed my ongoing experience at Clark Construction. The company has continually invested in both my professional and personal growth. This isn't an aberration, but a reflection of the company's inherent and stated values. Examples of professional development opportunities include a week-long immersive project management training with hundreds of peers from around the country, challenging and engaging project assignments, and opportunities to travel and learn from other project teams around the country. Personal development opportunities include strong compensation and benefits packages, excellent family leave opportunities (2 weeks paid parental leave for new fathers, more for mothers), and a genuine interest and support from management in the health and well-being of employees and their families. Clark seems to be a leader in promoting racial and gender diversity within the US construction industry. Management is approachable and engaged in supporting the team in a successful project delivery. The corporate hub invests significantly in engaging and informing the various divisions and locations around the country. Project teams are both professional and fun. My favorite example of a Clark benefit, is when my wife gave birth to our first child, not only did the company give me two weeks paid leave, but my managers setup the job to ensure that my work was covered as well as possible while I was out. No one made me feel bad about using my benefit, and everyone went out of their way to take on a little more so I could take off. I'm truly grateful for not just company policy to support personal growth, but management and team execution in the spirit of those policies. Working for Clark has been the best job I've ever had, and I'd wholeheartedly recommend a career with Clark to anyone.

Cons

My biggest complaint about Clark is probably one I would have about any company and is more of a complaint about the dominant culture in the United States. The catering often isn't healthy, the beverages purchased for lunches are always sodas or bottled water, vacation time is insufficient, the recycling efforts in the office and on the construction site could be enhanced, carbon/energy/environmental footprints should be tracked, cost savings could be realized and distributed. Clark is probably performing above average on many wellness and sustainability initiatives, but I am passionate about these topics and would like to see the company become more of a leader in these areas.

Regarding having a more robust recycling program and healthier work environments, we’ll pass this information along to our director of sustainability. - Brian Flegel, SVP, Talent
