McCarthy Building reviews

Hours. The job site culture here is ancient. Just because you demand employees stay at their desk for 12 hours a day doesn't mean they won't run out of productive things to do after hour #4..

Work - Life balance, sometimes 80+ hr a week. I see some people put in reviews this is normal. But that's not true. Quality / Timeliness of delivering "products" is what leading construction companies expect - a Big impact of this is efficiency. A lot, not all, of McCarthy Leadership are stuck in the philosophy "if you're not spending the time, it's not enough". And that philosophy trickles down onto jobs and sections of offices. The main culprits of creating this, are longer-term employees who have reached forms of leadership - some don't belong there but are "vested".. McCarthy has been evolving rules, procedures, programs, divisions, etc.. Very few employees or leadership have a good grasp on these, or have enough understanding to develop this in other employees. Depending on your leadership or job, you'll face a significant amount of problems and get weighed down heavily in these. Jobs are usually spread too thin. The company doesn't have enough talent retention to properly staff jobs/positions usually, which again is not normal. Usually this is covered up by stating "we don't have the budget for it".
