Excellent Mentoring

MANAGER, ADMINISTRATION (Former Employee) – Edmonton, AB – 3 November 2018

Growing with a company over a period of 18 years allowed me both a personal and professional growth. The excellent mentoring from the managing partners has provided a basis for my future interests. As a smaller company we had a very good workplace culture which tended to die out as the company grew and new management did not seem to share the same values.

Pros

Excellent Managing Partners

Cons

Loss of or change of corporate values

Hard work but at least you get free coffee

Labourer (Former Employee) – Norman Wells, NT – 30 January 2019

Labour work is always hard but depends, your co workers could make it fun. Just do your job. Management is never going to be fair. Don't get a job in the field if your not good at taking instructions.

Pros

Free coffees and food sometimes

Cons

bossy co workers

Money is good, Culture is horrible

Rigger (Current Employee) – Edmonton, AB – 10 October 2018

Good place to work with money and hours though the cons are heavy. The politics within the company are horrible, they are racist, sexist and anything and everything in between. The foremans act like children and throw tempers as if their in grade school. The older employees are not willing to teach the apprentices and will go out of their way to make you look bad to save their jobs. They will hide safety issues that OHS should be looking into, things that would get the company In HUGE trouble. Don't work here unless your good at politics and are good at covering up safety mistakes.

Pros

Money, Hours

Cons

Foremans, Coworkers, Culture, Safety

Kind and helpful superiors

Infection Prevention and Control Administrator (Former Employee) – Yellowknife, NT – 1 May 2018

Productive and continuous building great team.

Labourer (Former Employee) – Norman Wells, NT – 3 April 2018

Clark Builders is a great company to work with. Very versatile with their workers. Helpful and understanding superintendents. Knowledgeable workers and teaching their own skills to others. Pay is also excellent. Clark Builders also envested 500 million into the Northwest Territories to build for the people of the NWT and it’s government. I am truly grateful a big company such as Clark Builders would make an investment in such a harsh climate which can hinder dead lines for company’s.

Pros

Pay is good

Cons

Long hours
