Typical Day : 14-16 hrs of R&D, customer interfacing, trouble shooting, and resolving issues with engineering. Training co-workers, and staff on usage of technology.  Writing reports, coordinating tools, personnel, and engineers.  Rebuilding and replacing Hardware, software, upgrading systems, and 24hr on call demand.
Learned :  Much about networks, switches, routers, fiber optics, virtual machines, remote desktops, microwave & satellite communications, and SCADA technology.
Management was non existent.  No leadership, No decision making responsibility, obtuse in conversation, held alternative agendas, squabbled, politically oriented, always under a " Power Struggle ", underhanded, lie to your face, no integrity, no honesty, hire my friend over qualifications.  Myopic in vision, always trying to prove a point over productivity. Wasteful, self absorbed, arrogant, slothful, to a point to wonder why production went from 7 operating units, to 2 within a 6 month period.
Co workers...Lied about their background, self absorbed, abusive, jealous, out to climb the ladder that doesn't exist.  Voted most likely to commit career ending decisions of themselves.  Think that their cubicle is the only thing that exists, Judgmental, and "Team " was not part of their vocabulary.
Hardest part of the job was enduring these individuals. Enduring a sales rep, whom threw me under the bus twice.  No integrity, would not speak up for me, nor ask ME what my side was to any question.  Lied to me, knew of things going on, and denied any knowledge, but facts disproved that " Not Knowing " Would not negotiate a raise, nor would take my side on anything.  CEO lied to me, patronized me, and dismissed anything I had to say.
Most enjoyable part of the job, was not being Micro-managed, looked over, and getting to know the crews for their personality, strengths, weaknesses, and cohesiveness.  Learning and teaching was a two way street.  They learned from me, I learned from them.  Although I was the lowest paid, I gained motivation, and a positive attitude towards my job and was accepted by them as one of their own.
After 2 years was told, " I wasn't a good fit "  after 2 years ???
suddenly....a " buddy " was hired.

Working at Motiva has not only given me a nice comfortable way to live, it pretty much saved my life. It's provided me with regularity, friendship, some minor education, and a grand insight into life in a major corporation which I've come to enjoy.

My role is an important one. Not only am I doing basic data entry, I'm keeping records and coordinating materials at the same time and making sure the locations for said material are constantly being updated and correct. This comes in handy later when clients come in and need to find the materials for the various turnaround units and projects going on at all times. 

My coworkers are great, we've become a tight unit over the course of our time here together. And we've only gotten better as a cohesive entity through trial and error. You learn from the mistakes and you move on without too much looking back. Forward is the only thing that matters.

As far as the most enjoyable part of the job goes, it comes from satisfaction of getting your work done for the day and expending the effort to make sure you did the best you could. When you enjoy what you do, there is no 'hard part' of it. If it's hard, then you're not enjoying yourself or the work that you do. For me, it's as simple as that.

Doing this job has better prepared me for office life and what to expect down the road, seeing as I want to get more into programming, through web development to coding in the future.

The first red flag was when the advertised rate was not met. The recruiter tried to explain it away by saying they had just posted an estimated wage. It was an obvious lie since wages are agreed upon with the client before the hiring process begins. I let it slide.

Once on site the client laid out expectations that were well outside the job description, but within by skillset. I reached out to the recruiter about the new expectations, said that I was willing to do the added work, but compensation needed to be fairly adjusted. They sided with the client to make a long story short. In the five weeks I was there I only spent 30 or so hours doing the job I was hired for.
The nail in the coffin is that the client wanted me to act as their SME, but then largely ignored my suggestions which were based solidly in industry best practices and my 20 years of hands on experience. 
I have greatly shortened the whole thing, but suffice it to say that the company lied and declined to support their personnel. The client did not comprehend the role they were hiring for or the systems they needed to implement to be successful, but were completely convinced otherwise.
I will never pursue a position with either company again.

This company is a joke the bosses are liars they don't care about their employees. You will be forced to work your days off or be fired. There's extreme favoritism. YOU HAVE TO FIND SOMEONE TO WORK YOUR SHIFT in order to take time off!
DONT GET INJURED ON THE JOB THEY WILL FIRE YOU! If the hlo's or Leads don't like you you'll get fired.
Turn over at this company is the highest in the state! No holidays off they work 365. Noone manages to stay long enough to get vacation time their either fired or quit before they meet the requirements to recieve vacation. Pay raises don't happen! Most workers are lazy and hide leaving new hires to do most of the work! Poor training at this job. Don't ask questions it's a do as your told even if it's wrong company if you speak up they consider you a problem and will fire you. You don't have scheduled break times it's whenever your slow sometimes the only break you get is your lunch time

My typical Day at work was as follows: I liked my position with this company because it let me utilize my people skills, to be able to help others understand how important it is to follow instructions, work plan and safety rules. Also, The hardest part of my work was: 
1- To have to deal with the instrumentation companies that didn't provide the devices on time as they promised on the order and 
2-  To have to deal with people not showing up o work and have to delay the projects due to people missing work multiple time a month.

Drive onto oilfield lease to meet up with the drilling rig company man to go over what the rig would be doing. Drive around lease with decibal monitor and recording levels. I learned that no question was to dumb to ask! When I had an issue with safety or noise the management took care of it right away. My co-workers were really good at following policies and procedures and were never rude when I did have an issue arise. The hardest part of the job was keeping the noise down on a drilling rig that is there to do a job and noise comes with that job. Going on day's off knowing that no one was injured on my watch

I love working at Cenergy International Services because it feels like more than just a job. Employees are supported, listened to, and given opportunities to grow. Cenergy invests in training and development, promotes a strong safety culture, and truly cares about doing right by its people. It’s a company where hard work is recognized and teamwork really matters.

I worked for this company for 3 years. I was their contractor and contracted with Chevron. The department I worked with at Chevron was great for the most part. There was just terrible pay from Cenergy/Midcom. 1 week of vacation only, and only 3 sick days. I never accrued more hours even though I was there for 3 full years. Trying to get a raise was impossible. It wasn't until I found another job, they then offered me a $3 raise. Management was  terrible to reach. Also, no one in HR ever knew anything. It was so hard to get answers. 

Great team of professional coworkers always striving for on time on budget projects and achieving goal zero with our safety for 2 years straight . Our management was always available for discussion on any matter that we would like to discuss and coworkers always showed respect for all . I guess the biggest challenge was dealing with the severe weather we can encounter in this area and the most enjoyable part of the job for me would be learning more each day

Very high paced, needy job.  Attention to detail is a must.  Working side by side with the Company Man brings a lot of pressure.  If you do you job, you will be fine.  Great environment, great logistics team.  The onshore team was very hard to work with.  A bunch of leaders who have never been offshore before makes it quite difficult.  The Company Men on the rig were second to none.  I'm really going to miss working for those guys.
