Decent money Great insurance

Millwright

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Make decent money and really good health insurance

Cons

21 turn schedule. Can't schedule a doctor's appointment 3 months ahead because you have no idea what shift or day you'll be working. Forced doubles if someone calls off. This 'NPS' stuff is absolutely ridiculous! Should not be mandatory. Of all the things I've seen companies waste huge amounts of time and money into this is by far the biggest. I don't need to know if 10 people can lift a pipe with their fingers and not let a marble roll out. Spend that time, money, and effort in making sure a new guy can run some pipe by himself and I'm all for it.

As you know, the 21-turn schedule and occasional mandatory overtime can be challenging. Our operations require flexibility, but we are always looking for ways to balance business needs with employee well-being. Regarding the NPS program, we appreciate your perspective. Our goal with these initiatives is to build stronger teamwork while including your voice in the way we manage. That said, constructive feedback like yours helps us evaluate and adjust how we implement programs so they’re as meaningful as possible. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and for the work you do every day to keep our operations running strong.
