What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Day starts with toolbox meet focusing on the days plan with a strong safety foundation through action based coaching. Members are encouraged to lookout for one another as it ensures team success. Leading by example is a must as it is a strong way to help guarantee the best potential outcome. Team, team, team, all the way to the end of the day. All this made possible with the key. Yes communication is key. Practicing the core values and following through. Yup.

The day would start with the meetings in the morning to explain each individuals job task. After the meeting their would be a exercise program we would have to co-mince before work ever began. Once the morning meeting was over then it was time to get our job scope plus tools needed for the task at hand. Then it was off to pipe-fitting. Learned alot about the safety in a live unit and how to plan work ahead in everydays task. It is important to always plan work ahead to keep moving in a positive direction in order to prevail when it comes to time of completion. Work place culture and management meet all expectations. Very friendly and informative. Hardest part about the job is the live process all around you. It gets difficult to move around in the racks when certain hazards reside. All in all the job was very enjoyable and it gave myself some extra tools for the next jobs.

Me personally love everything about this job everyone that work there know what to when they start and know how to do it and no accident on someone seriously didn't hurt everyone that works there treat you fairly like one big family and everybody communicate with each other and help one another one situations really get bad or prevent other people from getting hurt or injured they teach us how to communicate with each other help one another when once in a bad situation always safety first look out for your friend if they any kind of situation or in harm's Way to help prevent any accident or death situation communication is the key to the whole job and I'll come to work in one piece and one leave in one piece and the job pays real good they have good Chinese for those that don't know for a while what they're doing when you love that job you considered professional because they take you everything you need to know

A routine of prefab material to make forms, has me counting. Prefab a certain amount allowed me to switch with a co-workers to new task. This routine allows everyone to get a chance and get on hands with different task. The first hardest part of this work, is having the head supervisors push u to complete 4 days of work into 1. the Second is meeting great new co-workers you enjoy working with and when certain jobs are completed and the company has to take a reduction of employees. The best thing i like when working in this field, is contacting my co-workers, after and hard days work to make sure they made it to their destination. I will always luv what i do, and who i do it with. thats what motivates me when working for a strong Company.

Most days I ran dirt equipment excavating for foundations surrounded by workers that were doing layout and form work. Did the backfilling of dirt in lifts which needed to be compacted by labors which worked around me. Did most all excavation around live electrical and piping. Occasionally operated a crane or forklift but mostly was utilized on dirt equipment.  Also did finishing grade of construction area with dozer or whatever equipment it required to complete. Learned the importance of communicating  between supervisors down to the laborers and fellow employees. The only reason I left was to work full time running my swimming pool construction business.

I’ve learned from working not a long time so far at Cajun that unless you know someone high up in management, there’s no moving up and you are treated poorly. If you want to receive an opportunity at another position or learn about another position you don’t have the option. Specifically where I am at, everyone is allowed to smoke or take a small brain break when needed. When I or someone from my crew would like to smoke or get off of our legs for 2-5 minutes we are threatened with our jobs and told we cannot do that. It’s hard to even get a water break without this happening.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day would be stressful.

I enjoyed my time working with Cajun at ExxonMobil and if I could work with them again, I would! A typical day at work for me would be relatively simple but not without it's difficulties. Every day I'd learn a thing or two in which I enjoyed doing so. The people I worked around would be the same kind of people I'd choose to be around with outside of work. Overall my time at Cajun in my eye's would be successful  not to mention the management. All them guys would always help me out and point me in the right direction.

Arrive early eat breakfast that may or may not be provided. Attend jobsite safety meeting then individual safety meeting. Stretch and begin to plan out the day.

I was hired to fill a managerial position and was never given the opportunity to get exposed to what was in my job description.   The office personal appeared professional, however when I was thrown into the field without going thru the Cajun and CSX mandated training, I found that the field Management and craft were lacking in support and knowledge. All seamed to be fearful for their jobs. I was more than qualified for the position I was hired for and have since seen the same position advertised.
