Pros

Pay and benefits are decent. I liked the 4 days on/2 days off shifts.

Cons

It was a good place to work when it was Sunoco, now that Energy Transfer has taken over they nit pick everything so that they can justify firing you. 1 write up takes 3 years to come off your record. 3 write ups within 3 years and your fired. And they will write you up for everything. Very dangerous at well sites because of H2s gas that is at some of the wells. One sniff of this gas and you are dead. They expect you to get loads at the well sites even in bad lighting storms. Even though a well site gets hit by lighting 3-4 times a year. Management is rude and will violate Federal Work Place Harassment against employees knowing that if you complain to HR, that HR will cover for them and sweep it under the rug.

Pros

Good work environment, flexible work hours, patriotic management, good medical/dental benefits at very reasonable costs, company contributes $2000 toward your family HSA, if single, $1,000 to your HSA, good annual bonus, 401k dollar for dollar matching up to 5% plus an additional 3% profit sharing contribution is made to your 401k no matter what. If you put in 5%, the company puts in 8%.

Cons

There is a certain level of age discrimination here. Just don't know how pervasive it is.

Pros

There are not any pros that can be written about this company.

Cons

Handled COVID terribly. With record earnings Energy Transfer did not pay out bonuses for 2020. Stopped 401k match in 2020 due to COVID. Payed out bonus for 2021 1st quarter because of employee dissatisfaction. Therefore 2021 payout will be payed on 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter (not a full year payout). Merit increases were not payed out in 2020 and were average in 2021. Toxic and dysfunctional work environment in most groups. Management doesn’t take on leadership role. Most older managers are just riding out their last few years to retirement. Very “Good ole’ boy” environment. Hard for woman to get recognition and reach middle management. Most male managers and male co-workers will suppress women in career growth and career development.
