Pros

You will get a lot of experience working with Clark because they will just throw you in the middle of it sink or swim style

Cons

Unreasonable expectations for what is expected from new hires. Very little oversight and mentor ship. It's all about the bottom line and this company has clearly crunches the numbers that it's cheaper to hire more people and take advantage of the fact they are salaried and work them till exhaustion. It's a cycle with a high turnover rate and lots of new hires. It's unlikely you will do any real engineering just manage change orders and oversee mundane paperwork

Pros

-Interesting projects -Exposure within the industry

Cons

-Almost every review I’ve seen everyone says over worked. They say it’s the industry but Clark is known in the construction world for that. Working 12 hours in the field in normal and expected. - they favor certain people and make them little mentees under long term employees. Those people are then given a gold star. -Departments who you think would care about their people ( HR and Communications do not) -become so woke yet don’t actually react -Make the new vacation policy look like a benefit but it’s actually less time and keeps them from having to pay out if you leave - take pride in “safety” but expect you to drive to work in a snowstorm because they cleared the parking lot. The amount of people that were amazed at that email is insane.
