McCarthy Building reviews

Complaints of harassment, bullying and discrimination are not taken seriously. Whether reported to HR, ethics hotline or the CLO himself. In cases I was aware of, the perpetrators were not addressed, instead the victims were managed out and/or bought off. The womens initiative is more about teaching women to act like men and "fix" themselves rather than addressing the actual problem. As late as 2020 management refused to use gender neutral language despite the growing trend in both the legal system and with competitors and its own JV partners. They got defensive and said it "sounded weird". Even the mascot "the dude" was written off saying new hires weren't bothered by it... which misunderstands power dynamics. Women were often referred to as "girls" even in top management meetings. Top male leaders interrupted female leaders incessantly which all attributes to the overall environment of disrespect.

The company lacks quality leadership and there is very little accountability within the company. The management level does not facilitate professional development and communication needs improvement. The demographics at the company are starkly uniform, particularly so at the executive level; very little diversity and inclusion. Furthermore, very few efforts are made to change the status quo. Most of the efforts surrounding diversity and inclusion are strictly performative.
