Code Red Safety

The former Code Red Safety was a fun place to work and had an enjoyable atmosphere which quickly changed once the company was sold and the new management came into place. Basically all of the original employees have been either run off or replaced by people who came from the new Management's former company and any communication or opportunity for advancement is limited to those employees. There is alot of bad feedback from the newer employees who were brought over by the new Management regarding poor practices and controversies that have followed over to this current company which does not make you feel like you can trust the new management or even the employees that are constantly bad mouthing and re-telling events of thier pasts that they are now carrying over to here. The open door policy and teamwork messages that they try to encourage on communications or meetings is definitely a front because anyone who was not brought over by the new management personally all have a target on thier backs one by one until the herd is thinned down. I would avoid this company at all costs and look elsewhere!

What is the best part of working at the company?
The management, my rescue manager and the team I had was amazing couldn't ask for a great bunch of professionals .

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Our equipment had to come from home base station so that was a real problem other that that and them shipping everything, nothing was stressful about the job 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very professional , the culture and staff @ Code Red are kind and always eager to answer and help with anyone needs . 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Well , we usually start our day out with paperwork filling out our forms on our job site , depending whether it's a preplan or , jsa or work order . After that we prepare our gear and run through our mechanical advantages to make sure every thing is in order and ready to go just in case . 3:1 - 4:1  etc. Then we go over a couple of techniques and practice certain types of knots to familiarize ourselves every day to instill that muscle memory . Any typical day can change though we can be having a great day without incidents and the next we are out thier rescuing someone and that's what we would like to avoid .

I love this job, but myself along with others have had majors problems with management within the last 7 months that have caused myself along with many others within the company to look for other opportunities. I am looking for a company with strong management that provides the tools and the possibility for advancement however neither of those are currently being provided here. I am a very hard worker looking to advance myself and establish a long term career with a strong company. This has quickly become a dead end job so therefore I am seeing other options to better myself and provide my services to a great company. I know this all probably sounds harsh but at the end of the day I am looking to establish a career. I am a very hard worker and my hard work is not being appreciated and the job is showing no advancement opportunities so it is time for me to move on to someone who deserves a very hard and passionate employee like myself.

My typical day was helping sales representatives meet their goals.  I hired and trained them on the culture of Code Red Safety and what was expected of them.    Also fielded their calls and was responsible for margins (approving any that were not within Code Red Safety's set standard).   Strategic thinking in how to motivate the sales team.   
I learned  that each team member is different and you have to learn how to manage them separately as well as a team.  
I loved my manager/owner.   He was a great mentor and taught me everything I know.  
The culture was very fast paced and stressful.   I LOVED IT 
The hardest part of the job was hiring sales reps that actually want to work and managing those who didn't' know how to sell. 
The most enjoyable part of the job was the thrill of the fast paced decision making.    Managing everything all at once is a high light for me as well.

You 80 hours weekly while not knowing what your schedule is until the a day or 2 before the new week begins. No time for family. No benefits unless you are full-time. When becoming full-time no chance to use benefits ex (PTO is denied all the time when you want to use it. It is only excepted when company is not busy and they are always busy.) They will steal hours and money from you without correcting the mistake and play the blame game as to why you aren't getting paid what you worked for. You never meet upper management or people who you should know for any worked related issues. You also do payroll and HR job for them and they just agree if its correct or incorrect. 

This company had the most ridiculous cast of characters working there. The less u did the more u got paid or promoted. People dressed like slobs..I have seen more professional looking people at Walmart. Management , Sales team and Human Resources are a joke. Certain people walked around like they were superior but dumb as a box of rocks. This mickey mouse outfit could pay me $50 bucks an hour and I would them to go kick rocks. Stressful place with many fake  people. They get the big thumbs down and the middle finger.

I work for code red which is a subcontrator, we contracted through Westlake petrochemical. My position is holewatch firewatch. I have to say I love waking up and going to my job everyday. This job was something I have grown to understand more and love even a Iot more. I love the fact that you can experience and learn other jobs around your workplace. This job can be easy if you make it and it can also be difficult if you let it. I would love a perminate position if applicale, but turnarounds where only availible.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The Employees

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Taking the Business to the next level. We are growing at an amazing pace. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very good working environment with a good work / life balance. This company has become a company who cares for the employees and provides great opportunities for those who want it. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Achieving customer and company goals. Working alongside a smart, dedicated Team.

As a current Project Manager with Code Red Safety, I can truly say that if you want to succeed and are ambitious, you can. Working hard and being dependable is a huge asset with this company. The wages are competitive and fair and upper management will listen to any concerns that you may have and will work with you on those areas of opportunity.

Will lower your pay after your hired on and signed on at a set amount. They’re unorganized, unprofessional, and coworkers were irresponsible. Your not going to get to use your skills ever after training so if your signed on as rescue they’ll only have you as a hole watch so the others can sit in the truck all day. I Strongly recommend finding another company to work for.
