      Terrible company

      Petroleum inspector
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Freedom within schedule allows you to work unsupervised most of the time. For those that like working in small scale offices(2-3 employees) it's great.

      Cons

      Terrible pay and compensation. Ask far too much for the pay they offer. Often time scheduled for 48+hours and then on-call scheduling during off days. Major disconnect between field workers and management. Relatively low "glass ceiling" if you're not in a major metropolitan area, promotions are hard to come by.

      Peter Principle at Work.

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The fact that we have three proficient lead persons in our office quite often saves the day. I'm not sure how many times their knowledge and quick thinking have kept the wheels on the bus. They are good intelligent people who consistently get it right the first time. Given free reign and quality leadership they could make this a fantastic company to work for.

      Cons

      Manager has risen above his level of ability. Manager does not take care of his people. Manager misrepresents company policy in meetings. I have worked here for nearly two years without a raise. I recently asked for a raise and was told that the company could not afford to give me a raise. WHAT? I have been told twice now that I MUST choose between my family, and my job! I have never heard such callous B.S. from any other employer I have ever worked for!
