Great Company...But Not for Everyone!

Project engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good leadership Good Salary and great Benefits Get to work on different and challenging projects. Clayco is at the brink of its apogee and expanding to various locations and markets. Continued growth

Cons

Its not for everyone - Lot of travel involved - moving from project to project every other year. It gets tough for employees with families but Clayco does their part and covers the cost. Frequency to travel home and see your family depends on position and seniority level. Burn out is real. As an industry, its a lot of over time and late work and Clayco is no exception to that. But, there is a weekend rotation to help with it from time to time.
