Toxic environment - Operations Specialist TallGrass Employee Review

Easy work, fun and you get to interact with the customers.

I don't have any cons about the company nor the position.

Little to no oversight and/or intervention on the Control Center floor allowing you to perform your job undisturbed.

Poor leadership with heavy favoritism to certain employees who are also friends outside of work. People are promoted into leadership positions who don't belong in those positions. Tallgrass talks a lot about safety, but I was told very early on to never give any negative feedback on the annual safety and employment satisfaction survey because they're not anonymous and it will be held against you. I gave my Supervisor some very unsafe practices that I commonly witnessed and it went in one ear and out the other. They had a goal to create a very laid back and loose Control Center atmosphere and they've succeeded which will ultimately be their demise in my opinion. The Control Center staff is largely made up of younger people who play video games and engage in other very inappropriate activities all shift. Headphones maxed out so phones roll over is very common. I finally had enough and left. Irresponsibility was the norm and I simply didn't fit in.
