      Pros

      McCarthy offers excellent opportunities to those who seek them. If you work hard, take the initiative, and prove you care about the success of a project, then you can do anything at this company.

      Cons

      The worst part about working with a national firm is relocating. However this is what you sign up for, so you make the best of living in a town you never dreamed about and get your work done so you can move to the next one.

      Pros

      Financially strong company with a good ESOP.

      Cons

      Horrible management and culture. The company lacks business professionalism and a work life balance. Excessive redundancy and poor contract negotiations with owners. Expectations of 60 to 80 hours a week minimum. The company has high turn over at the 5 year mark as people get ESOP vested and then cash out.

      Pros

      McCarthy offers good benefits (same as several other GC's in San Diego). They do strive to have great releationships with the Owners and Subs.

      Cons

      McCarthy is very very low paying. They do not treat their Admins very well, from bonuses, to raises to sharing perks. Interns make more money and are treated better than the Admins.
