Do not I repeat DO NOT work here unless youre going to be a dump truck driver, heavy equipment operator or small job carpenter. I worked in the shop and Steve heist the shop manager is the most unprofessional boss Ive ever worked for. Everyone drags their feet till last minute to get anything done. There is 0 organization at this company, if you work here expect nothing to go as planned especially with Steve heist.

This place is a joke. No SOP's. Fly by the seat of their pants. Luck alone is why no one has died working for this outfit. Second only to MPW for the complete disregard of employee safety, effectiveness, & productivity. For some reason, in 17 years, Christian Robertson has failed to learn basic business principles like: Lease, never own heavy equipment. Why take the govt's depreciation when you can deduct the full operation & maintenance costs? Labor is 80-90 cents on every dollar so why not incorporate as much "labor saving" that is technologically and cost effective. I could go on and on. Stay
