C.R. Jackson

Typical day at work: morning is okay but longer day goes on the more bs you get dealt. You get paid for bare minimum but if you don't or aren't willing to do multiple jobs others are paid more to do then you're forever gonna get screwed over and looked down on. I did the job of 5 people but yet got paid $16 for over a year.

Only thing I learned from this job is that they say they want you to move up in the company but they'll rather spend months struggling to find an operator to under pay instead of training you. You get hired on a roller or whatever, just stay on that equipment and don't stress yourself about the rest of the job because it want do you any good here. You'll never move up within this company.

Workplace culture: wasn't too bad i met some pretty good people here, unfortunately none of them work here anymore because you can only take getting undervalued and held back for so long. You're replaceable and they don't mind treating you like you are.

The hardest part was slowly learning i wasn't gonna make it anywhere working here. I'm tend to be loyal to the places I work atleast I try to be but I believe this company has changed that part of me. Worked too hard for what I was getting paid. 

Most enjoyable part of the job was leaving and finding a job getting paid $7 more an hour and having them actually value my skills and give me the respect a hard worker deserves 

Don't plan on ever advancing at this place. Low pay an only promote the upper echelon. Worked there doing anything asked of me. I mentioned a pay raise to crew foreman and basically was told that only time the company gives raises is when the company is doing good. Stayed a while longer but decided to part ways. At the time I was a 30 year old with over 10 years experience, I didn't wanna be a 50 year old man who worked for the company 10 years and still only making $14 a hour. I took my experience elsewhere making over $6 more an hour.

CR Jackson is a fantastic place to work if, you truly value a supportive and collaborative culture. Management actively empowers team members to take ownership of their projects. I have grown immensely in my role because the company invests in continuous professional development and genuinely cares about employee well-being. 

Compensation and benefits are fair. Peak season is hectic but rewarding. 

It is an okay company to work for, but there is limited room for growth. Hours and schedules vary significantly by crew, and work is heavily weather-dependent. As a CDL driver, it can be tough — especially with the always-on interior/exterior cameras that use AI monitoring.
I’m generally fine with cameras for safety, but these are overly sensitive. Even glancing at your GPS, checking mirrors longer than normal, or glancing down for any reason can flag you as a “distracted driver.”
Overall, it’s decent pay and steady work, but the lack of advancement and the overly aggressive monitoring system are big drawbacks.

A typical day at work is stressful and but fun. I was around a great group of people which made the hard work less aggravating and stressful and you learn alot about the field of work. The most enjoyable part of the day is the end of they day when everyone is done with their job and is joking and cutting up with each other unless there is something that has to be done

I enjoyed my time spent working here. I learned a lot and grew as a professional. The opportunities that were provided for me to take a part of were more than I would have ever received elsewhere and for that I am grateful.

They have their favorite..and you never grow with the company. Supervisor throws you under the bus when it's time for raise. And the raise only be 25 to 50 cent when in all it should be 1.25 to 1.50 for the amount of work u do.
