PE in Bay Area

Project engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Forward thinking. Some great people. Interesting large scale projects.

Cons

Pay was below market value for the area. Large scale projects can last for multiple years and you can find yourself pigeonholed working on only specific aspects of the project. Hard to get a very well rounded experience.

Great Projects, Bad Management

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Management seems to care about people, especially if you become one of the chosen few. A lot of exposure to interesting projects as Clark is the undisputed leader in the DC area. Recognizable brand name.

Cons

Most people are overworked and underpaid. Management can't seem to make any decisions, and go as far as to promise things and never deliver. On one hand they don't get rid of people who should be let go, but they also don't promote people and allow staff to stagnate so the ambitious people leave. Anything other than straight construction is not a priority (green building, water, energy, P3, etc.). Clark hires a few hundred new college grads each year and loses most of them, as there are very limited opportunities to move up, with the exception of slogging it out and waiting for your peers to quit leaving you the only one to promote.

Good place to start out

Business Outlook

Pros

It is a very fast paced environment with plenty of opportunities to cross train. The name recognition is valuable when you inevitably move on.

Cons

You will quickly find yourself doing the work of multiple people while your superiors take the credit. Long hours.
