Pay & benefits
They have benefits yea but they will promise you a raise and never give you one they like to play with your emotions.

Job security and advancement
They will lay you off no matter what it’s just how it is you could be the best worker there and they will still lay you off. They laid a bunch of people off that just got there one time.

Management
Management is trash they only care about themselves and will feed you all these white lies to get your hopes up. They only care about their money and what’s hurting it if it’s nothing hurting their paychecks trust me they don’t care about you. So if you’re thinking about working here don’t work here management only cares about their own a**.

Culture
Work culture was a little on the bad side some days would be good I had a few bumps and scrapes there

Overall
Management will overwork you and make you feel like a slave with pay that ain’t worth that. They will get your hopes up high by telling you you’ll get a raise which they would lie through their teeth. They will tell you one thing and tell you another thing. Then you’ll be left in the dark and it’s your fault. They have favorites they will get somebody that has no type of experience and they will have a higher position than you and you work your butt off and they make more money than you. Management will lead you on to thinking one thing then they’ll tell you you’re wrong. It doesn’t get better than that don’t work here I repeat don’t work here cause you will be miserable.

Grind, sand, and paint pipes. Used aerial lifts and safety harnesses. Climbed ladders with yoyos. Learned how to measure wet paint thickness. Management would assign work when we got there in morning but some times would change the job in a matter of minutes due to lack of work conditions or plant safety. Management assigned you a job but rarely checked on you during the day and gave few instructions on was needed. Management was changed while I worked there firing the supervisor, the QC quit, demoted the foreman to a regular hand, the new supervisor was very immature and nobody was worried about training people who may have been hired to do jobs they were unqualified for. Helpers did the same jobs as painters even though they are not paid the same because of skill level but nobody checked to see who did what work and as a result the job was completed poorly and cost people their jobs and maybe the future contract of the company. Coworkers were easily passing blame about work done and as the group was split into two the foremen  did the same. It was extremely hard dealing with the constant change of rules and restrictions of not only my company but the safety team and head company of the job site. I liked that the job isn't physically demanding.

A typical day at work is satisfactory (for my career choice). It gives you the opportunity to interact with craftsmen and influence their way of thinking about safe work execution. I have learned a lot while working for this company... especially to work in a well structured safety department! I've had outstanding support from my corporate managers in different regions. Though workplace culture is different in different areas of the country, the company strives to create a consistent work environment and bring a level standardization to the operation. The hardest part of the job has been leaving the different assignments I've been blessed to manage. Making safety personal allows one to draw close to the workers. I've made friends with many of them and still keep in touch today! The most enjoyable part of my job has been to see the worker's efforts show improved safety performance. It is a great feeling to hear them tell you when they've learned something and value one's approach to working with them with respect! I highly recommend working for this company.

Overworked and underpaid all salary staff. People in the deer park office who are salary end up working 16 to 20 hours a day, and are expected not to leave without finishing not just their work but other people's too. When someone quits they pile on that person's work onto other people without properly training them, then hold them responsible without additional compensation.  Then they refuse to fill in those positions of people who quit. When you speak up about being overwhelmed,  they don't care, they just tell you "we are working on hiring someone" and gas light you to think if you work just a little harder you'll get a promotion or raise. They work people to the point of anxiety and depression.  I've personally been a victim of this and know several other people in the deer park office who've been in tears because of it. 

And when they are responsible for an issue with a contract,  they will blame whoever they can to scapegoat. The management is the problem.

I’m currently employed with Brock. I hate this place. I’m surrounded by negative depressed people who know they’ve settled, in life, for the worst. We don’t get paid enough, people are dramatic and like to gossip, if you’re not in with “the A team” the boss won’t let you off till she knows none of her friends want off. This place is like prison, but worse. At least in prison you could actually make a joke and people would laugh. People you work for, under, and with are rude. Seniority is a huge thing here. I’ve been here going on a year in July and I hear “you’ve not been here long enough” more than “you’re a good worker.” I absolutely despise this place. When I first came I was the youngest and hardest worker here. The longer I’m here, the less I care about my job, and I’m not that kind of person. I love working for my money. I’ve been looking for another job for about 4 months now. But the supervisor comes here with a poor attitude, and that’s where everything starts. A supervisor is supposed to be someone to look up to, and if they aren’t, the people under them are even worse. Do NOT work for this company.

It really depends on the site, because while the actual workload is easy and very manageable, the management makes the entire experience unbearable. They consistently hire friends and family members and place them in leadership roles they are clearly not qualified for, which creates frustration across the board and destroys any sense of fairness or professionalism in the workplace. Instead of supporting the people who are actually doing the work, management creates and allows a hostile work environment that negatively impacts morale and productivity. Concerns are ignored, accountability is nonexistent, and favoritism is obvious in day-to-day operations. On top of that, the level of SH that goes unchecked is completely unacceptable and is handled with little to no urgency when brought to their attention. It feels like employees are expected to just tolerate toxic behavior while management turns a blind eye. At the end of the day, the highlight isn’t job satisfaction or teamwork — it’s simply clocking out and getting to go home.

I have been employed with Brock services LLC. for almost five years. My typical day at work involves a wide spread of various job activities. One day I can be operating different varieties of motorized equipment and the next day I could be doing carpentry and structural maintenance work. Where I am currently employed I have learned multiple maintenance skills, I have completed multiple safety classes, and have completed training and acquired operating licenses for various motorized equipment. I have been labeled as group leader on various jobs. I strive to keep a professional relationship with my fellow employees that I work with. I feel that a group of employees that maintain a professional relationship with each other ultimately leads to a more safe and more productive day. We as a team strive for a culture of excellence. The most difficult parts of my job involve various climates and some intense work labor. The most enjoyable part of my job is the wide spread variety of jobs that I am involved with.

My typical day at work consists of writing JSA'S, reading job scopes, PAID'S, building scaffolds to meet osha specs and the companies requirements the safest way possible. I am also a QC so I inspect the scaffolds for their effectiveness and also their safety. The people I work with are positive reinforcement to those who come to work not wanting to be their we try to keep a high tempo throughout the day and lift each other up to be at our full potential. If I had to say the hardest part of my job it would have to be hanging a scaffold from the top of a reactor, tower or a structure for someone to get on and inspect gauges, change orifice plates,  change different kinds of instruments Ect.

I worked for Crock(BROCK) for a little bit, but with that company, there was no room to grow. There were only three ways yo advance; one was if you played their politics, sucked up to the supervisors, and the other way to advance if you knew or was related to someone. Your days were long and hard, somedays you found your self having to stay over cause supervisors wouldn't push specific crews, and we would have to do there job. The pay was horrible. Receiving a minimal of a pat on the back was unacceptable—the moral in Freeport Tx. , was awful, we did a walkout on them due to the working conditions. We never had material, but yet we would get written up for lack of productivity. When you would ask for a raise, and you were able to show on paper your high productivity, they would find a way to write you up so that you wouldn't be able to receive an increase in pay for your hard work. I'm glad I left that company, but I feel bad for my brothers of the fold that are still there.
