Pros

The pay isn't bad but could be much better. The 401k match and the yearly Employer contribution to 401k are the best benefits is probably the best thing they offer (if you stay around long enough to get it). Everything else is very standard and expensive. Even their time off plans are outdated.

Cons

If you are not building the buildings or making money for Clark, they do not care about you more than legally mandated. (Even though they treat their Craft employees like they are not able to learn any skills beyond their normal day-to-day job. But that is another story...) Their 'culture' isn't culture, it is outdated work 'rules'. If you are a good employee, that looks for efficiencies, and to make things more legal and updated. FORGET IT. They won't let you. If you are efficient in your job, they will just keep piling it on, even taking it from others to give to you. Even other departments. You won't get a raise for this, or a title bump. There is a TON of turnover, especially with employees that actually know what they are doing, because they burn them out. Also, due to the turnover, they rarely get rid of the staff who aren't pulling their own weight, and in some instances promote them because there isn't anyone else. Many of the managers, directors, etc should not be managers (again promoting those that stay they shouldn't...which after years is into even the VP level- think Finance, HR, Tax, Risk, etc). Those who are in the office longer will get promoted, even if they are not working. They equate Butt in seats as Productive Work, and if they can't see you, you are not working. I made it years longer than my predecessors because I was hoping that once I proved myself... forget it. They don't care. They don't care about YOU, only what you can do for them.

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
