Never met a challenge I could not handle most times I exceeded expectations. Fast to learn anything they needed me to do. I also kept tools in a running position if possible I was instructed to trash them if not running. I would not send tools out that were working in good condition. Even when told if that's all we have to work with let them use it till it flies apart. Also was in charge of giving out proper welding rods as per the job required. Very high paced job even when it included me to go into Plant and help tear down when job was finished was never written up for anything, even was told by the General 
Manager I was doing to good of a job to slow down. I got along with all the people I worked with unless I asked them for a tool they had checked out, we worked 12 hours a day, so some did not want to go back into the Boiler to get the tools. and they would get mad at me because I ask them to please get it for me. And they would but for most part they knew I was only doing my job. As far as what I learned it was a lot because the job was for sure different on each job, but I was up for it. Hardest part of job was getting employees to return tools. Most enjoyable were the mgmt. always satisfied with my work always told me I going above and beyond what was expected of me. My pay also within a little over a year went from $18 dollars per hour to $32 and also $110. per day for a place to stay and food.

Renewable Concepts is in Early Development and hasnt been out in the world for too long. Granted, even though it is young it is becoming larger and larger as time goes by. It has an excellent placement in the job industry due to the type of work it is in, Wind Energy.

It was a very interesting job, and by far my favorite that i have had. The skills, and information that i gained from this job could benefit me greatly in the future. Wind Energy is something that will always be there, and having a company with assurance like that is an excellent benefit.

Even though it was usually the same type of work day after day, it never got old. Travelling and seeing what the world has to offer is one of my most treasured moments of this job.

the hardest part of the job was having to deal with constantly being away from my friends and family, the money was excellent but theres always negatives and postitives to every situation.

I developed social skills because i was traveling constantly and having to meet new people all of the time, (plant supervisors, workers, safety inspectors)

This job has given me qualifications in Tower Rescue Training, First Aid Training, OSHA Training and multiple Safety Inspections from different companies.

The most enjoyable part of this job was to get up in the wind towers and see how they work, and what makes them tick. Traveling was a con, but it let me get out there on my own and learn how to take care of myself without having someone on there to depend on.

Management empowered me to develop growth prospects at my own pace without pressure. Management established my residence as my typical place of business. Frequent travel required in surrounding States, but company provided a vehicle and all transportation needs. Several team building meetings were held annually, along with advanced training seminars with peers. Enjoyed working with the company's sales department to develop new opportunities and advance established relationships. Sales included me in several of their meetings to discuss projections and award possibilities. Hardest part of job was breaking the binds between Owners and their original equipment manufacturers. Left company only because of a financial opportunity to become a consultant for a firm that I had previous long-standing association. Great company to work for, and I enjoyed the support and assistance provided by internal resources.

Most of my day consists of processing invoices, research and resolve accounts payable discrepancies, questions and issues to make sure prompt and appropriate payment to our vendors and subcontractors. I performed a check run on Wednesday’s of each week. I also assist with monthly accruals on month end closing. Additionally, I assist the accounting manager with newly reports that involve excel by creating new spreadsheets and creating an efficient template along with formulas.  

First thing when I come in to work is to open my email to check for any inquiries from other accounting staff and vendors and ensure I noted down to resolve within 24 hours. I then work on newly received expense reports and invoices ensuring to stamp them and begin to audit them by matching it with its backup, confirm correct GL account number coding, and obtain proper approval to then process them in Costpoint for payment, if there are no discrepancies. I always prioritize all expense reports, invoices that hit us with late charges, invoices that have discounts and utility invoices.

18 years of back stabbing.Management,dogs good employees.I can not believe the things they get away with.Management takes all credit from hard working people.Better get ready for 7 days a week as long as you can do it.Then when they dont have work they cut your hours to 32 hrs.for months.Point system is insane.And you will not be allowed to spend time with your family at all.They own you,while management come and go as they please.Management works any time they want to.And take any credit the hard workers do.I swear it is a chain gang job,with a warden over you everyday.OFF shift hours are 4:30 PM-3 AM.The worst hours I have ever seen.You will be stuck on those hours for years in Lyman,SC.And the Overlay shop is such a joke in leadership.Never seen a boss get away with the things done to people.Joke of a place to work.Unless your in a Communist country.Good luck if you try it.This is your warning.


Thermal Engineering was, by far, the best place I have worked at. The way that school has always portrayed the workforce to be was nothing like here at TEi. Granted work was always constant and people were always busy but everyone there understood the differences between work and "play". I received words of encouragement everyday, not to mention advice from wiser-than-me adults. There wasnt someone always breathing down my neck or watching me, they kind of lived by a "you're an adult" concept so I was liable for anything I messed up AND did correct and was always praised.

Awesome people that genuinely cares about their workers. A traveling job you work about 6 weeks on and 1 week off. That was not for me, but while I traveled I made more money that I even thought possible without a college degree. All of my coworkers were very knowledgeable and friendly and I had an outstanding time working for the people that were in charge. Everyone there seemed to actually care about their workers. If something was wrong, if brought to their attention, they would do their best to fix the issue at hand. 10/10 company, if I could have kept traveling I would have.

Vogt is a company that sells huge Heat Recovery Steam Generators to natural gas power plants.  The sales cycle is long - up to 2 years and then another 18 - 24 months for execution.  The business is cyclical but unpredictable, so company human resource needs go up and down.

I liked everyone I worked with.  Like any job, when the pressure was high things got tense - but that's true in any business.

The management and employees are honorable, ethical and hard working.

The people are great. The work is an exclusive market, so sometimes we don't get the bids and are in a slump with work. We have been that way for several months now and just had a layoff. No one feels safe. On the other hand, when we do get bids, we are busy for a couple months. Then it's over if we miss another bid. On off on off. We fight on a world-wide market. The pay is great for those there for years but you end up being salary but working near 50 hours a week or more. Many seek the overtime when they can get it.
