Pros

-Compensation -Successful Company/Job Security -Opportunity -Semi Annual Training Outings

Cons

The warm welcome is non existent. Staff meetings are cut throat often threatening team members jobs with hopes for success in management's unrealistic schedule. Moral is very low in the Chicago branch. Turnover rate is very high with this company for a reason. Specifically in Chicago the branch has multiplied the team members by 200% in the past few years. This has put the company culture on the back burner. It is dwindling new associates giving a bad representation of a successful GC like Clark. There is no structure from day 1 walking on to the job. If you are not in the clique you will not be recognized or even sought after. The comradery is there but impossible to penetrate coming from another company. If you come from an outside company you will be seen as an outsider and will be reminded of this on a daily basis. You can only put up with favoritism and being treated like a red headed step child for so long. The long hours and deconstructive criticism going around the entire team in Chicago was not worth making a sacrifice for.

Pros

Really good place to grow your career. You'll get a lot of responsibility that you might not get elsewhere

Cons

The reason they give so much experience to young people is because anyone with options flees like it's the plague. They make everything much more difficult than it needs to be. Turnover factory because no one wants to do extra hours of unnecessary work all inside an extremely tense culture. Never seen a company do things so backwards in precon because its "the Clark way" and then when it doesn't work out they are surprised. In many Clark regions they lose their competitiveness as soon as the market is good and subcontractors have a choice of who they will work with. There are so many incredible regional subs that wont touch Clark. The only people that last here are Clark Lifers or people who came from even more toxic offices who dont realize how backwards the Clark culture is
