Low Pay, Not Enough Workers - Concrete Finisher Trax Construction Employee Review

Pros

It's a job with a check

Cons

They pay lower than all other local concrete companies. They have 2 laborers for every 15 finishers, then say "everybody is a laborer." Laborers we do have stand around and talk unless they are told to do something. Everyone here has a giant ego and thinks they're the best. It's almost like prison, makes sense since most workers are former inmates. Massive projects but can't hire people due to low wages. Foreman are mostly useless. They can't even set grades, the superintendent has to come and fix their mistakes. They expect the formsetters to set grade, that's the foreman's job. Every other company I've worked for the foreman set grades. They say they 'work all year." But that's a lie. When it snows one inch they call off work. Snows 6" no work for 3-4 days. Get harassed daily. Other workers calling me out of my name and the foreman participate. No respect at all in this company.

Pros

They don't mind hiring new people they almost don't care of check at how much experience you actually have yes that also goes with higher up postistions I watched supervisor after supervisor changes that after a while you just find a nic name for them so it doesn't take up mental space

Cons

Very hard to go higher than Forman if you didn't start as a supervisor or office job your just going to waste your breath the good news about that is they will still get to like you if you learn what your are doing without an actual promotion they depend on competent works to lead people without actually giving them authority or pay unless you like demanding more pay over waiting to be acknowledged the louder you are the easier it is for them to know you want more money
