Vantaggi
Good benefits but are trending downward. Non-management employees were typically great to work with and were helpful. 9/80 work schedule (every other Friday off) was very nice. Very nice, new building with great facilities and workout room.
Svantaggi
The company's business is heavily influenced by the oil and gas market making it volatile. The company culture and morale have declined in the past 4 years since new ownership/management took over. Additionally, poor business planning and two layoff events in Sept. 2015 and Jan. 2016 have further impacted morale negatively. The downturn in economy has exposed week upper management. Pay is lower than for comparable jobs in other industries. New employees are left to fend for themselves as there is no formal and consistent training program which leaves people to experience great struggles when initially on-boarded. Career paths are not outlined well or at all, as it is for some cases, by management. Promotions seem to be more aligned with who you know and appear to be more weighted on things subjective in nature. The leadership team struggles to represent well the company core values they promote. Generally speaking, the leadership team is disappointing overall and challenged and lacking in their leadership and management skills.
