Pros

The benefits at McCarthy are good, especially when you consider being fully-vested in the ESOP after 5 years of employment. The cost of health insurance was comparable to other mid-size companies.

Cons

The people at McCarthy cannot be trusted. They talk about a "smart and healthy" culture but then you find that secrecy and back-stabbing is the norm. Organizational Development could use some work. There are silos and competition among internal departments. They talk of "one company" but really, each region does whatever the they want to do. There are a lot of white men in leadership positions, if that is what you are looking for in a company. If you are an engineer, go for the job. If you want a corporate position, I think there are better places to work with a much better culture.

Pros

ESOP, great annual salary and benefits, for most part great people

Cons

Longest hours I’ve ever worked in construction industry. Management tells you to leave early but also expects extensive tasks and work to be done as well. Constant meetings that prevent work to be completed. Very cliquish at times. A lot of unnecessary or unproductive training.
