Great company to work for.

Associate specialist - scada

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible schedule, high salary, decent bonus (~12% of salary), relaxed environment, casual dress.

Cons

They only give 2 weeks vacation for your first 5 years. 2 weeks is really not enough especially when your family lives across the country. I plan on asking for more when I get promoted (hopefully after 2 years of working here).

Business Outlook

Pros

Job security, decent pay, new equipment.

Cons

No work life balance, no on call schedule your on call all the time, high turnover rate in personal and takes forever to fill position, no path for progression, safety is a low priority.

Energy Transfer Response

Thanks for your feedback. There is a time based progression structure (promotions with higher pay which are automatic based on time worked) for time based progression jobs and overtime is offered of course for nonexempt employees. Safety is by far a top priority and the "Personnel team helped hire internally/externally nearly 2,000 people in 2018. We encourage a review of our 10-k and website for further information. Thank you, Energy Transfer LP

USED to be a great place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits. Salaries aren't as high as others in industry, but if you do a good job the bonus can make up for it.

Cons

Company is getting too big. All flexibility we used to have (work from home when sick) is now gone. Promotions are difficult to get because they seem to promote based on who you are friends with instead of qualifications. Also, promotions on hold often due to company constantly purchasing other companies.
