Pros

3 day weekends, secured work

Cons

the amount of work you are expected to do for 20 an hour is almost comical. you’re expected to calibrate your own machines, download your own routes, get your equipment ready, have a safety meeting, and be out on the field within 30 minutes of clocking in. after 9.5 hours of being outside all day walking and climbing up multiple towers with heavy equipment, you’re expected to go back to the trailer at the end of the day and clean up the trailer (broom,mop, disinfect surfaces, take out the trash) all while the manager is in his desk watching netflix. keep in mind you’re getting paid 20 an hour and only get a 40 cent raise a year. you can make just as much, if not more, working at some entry level jobs that require you to do less than a fraction the work expected of you here- and you don’t have to be exposed to chemicals all day

Pros

Company is highly adaptable. Maintains agility even though the company large. Upper management supports and encourages employee involvement.

Cons

Being a publicly traded company hinders some type of growth due to burdensome overhead.

Pros

Prior to our company's acquisition with MEG/Onterris, the company had a strong culture, supportive leadership, and employees who genuinely cared about one another and the success of the business.

Cons

If your company has been acquired, pay close attention to employee reviews and take them seriously. I did, and many of the concerns raised turned out to be accurate. Employees were repeatedly assured that the acquisition would create new opportunities and that jobs were secure. In my experience, that was not the reality. Long-tenured employees were gradually pushed out while similar positions were later reposted with modified titles or responsibilities. The former ownership ultimately lost control of decisions despite assurances that little would change. Employees with years of institutional knowledge spent years implementing new procedures, documenting procedures, learning the new system, and navigating disorganized Workday implementations with minimal support. Much of the guidance consisted of being directed to read instructions on the intranet. If you are in a finance position they will let you go! They will tell you they want it all centralized in Arkansas but that's not true, there are plenty of people working remote but you will be pushed out no matter how long you've been with your company. This not only affected me but our entire team was wiped out. They didn't give us a heads up in advance to look for anything for 2 years we were told everyone was safe and I believed them. Keep an eye out for the constant restructuring of upper management as well.

Thank you for a decade of contribution, and for sharing this so candidly. Change of this scale asks a lot of trust from employees, and we recognize that. We take feedback like yours seriously as we work to communicate more clearly through transitions and support the people navigating them. We'd genuinely value hearing more directly please contact our HR team at HRCorp@onterris.com so we can listen fully. Kevin Gill, SVP, HR
