Pros

Pay wages are realistic if employed in California due to Union regulations. Opportunities within “McCarthy Building” not “Mcarthy mapping”. Resources are endless with cooperation of management, tools and equipment to complete task are provided. Human Resources is actively engaged with employees.

Cons

Turn over rate is absolutely terrible. Individuals are faced with no option but to work for the competitive companies after a toxic management environment . Will be managed by a team out of your State; no actual management in own region that you are hired in. Unrealistic timelines and bidding of projects. If salary overworked and not compensated fairly. Favoritism within the starting individuals of Mapping Department. Will have Salary employees do union work and leave no work for union qualified individuals.

Pros

Great company culture, exposure to some amazing projects, project teams are fantastic, camaraderie with your team, great resources and onboarding to ensure you learn to do your job well. ESOP and bonuses are great.. if you stick it out long enough.

Cons

Pay is not as competitive as other GC's, you can be relatively underpaid as they rely too heavily on preaching about the ESOP (which takes you 5 years to even be fully vested). Can be very political and leadership kinda plays favorites, some people who dont deserve it get promoted quick and others who do deserve it never get promoted. Long work hours and depending on the jobsite it can be pretty high-stress (but thats just construction for ya).
