Pros

Worked at Essroc for 7 years about 10 years ago and enjoyed it. Employees were empowered and recognized. Senior management listened to employees and valued positive suggestions and any feedback. Good teamwork with knowledgeable long time employees at all levels working within the organization. Essroc hired and developed their own talent from within the organization.

Cons

Occasionally expats without sufficient experience and knowledge of North American business culture were sent over from the parent company which limited career progression more difficult.

Overworked and let down

Pros

The people are hard working and want to make a difference.

Cons

Senior management needs to realize they have a real problem. The 60 to 70 hour work week is too much for anyone over a extended period of time. For me the job started of well and seemed great. I was quickly introduced to poor management techniques and a 65 hour work week. The place became just a horrible place to work. The turnover rate is horrible and people usually start pursuing other companies shortly after starting. The place could be a great place to work, but I don't think the current management style will let it happen. The company seems to thrive on reactive maintenance and short term decision making. People need to realize the they will never receive a bonus and this job, and the company never paid one in the last 5 years. Be sure to ask the HR manager about the average raise and bonus of the last 5 years.
