Conco Services LLC

I’ve seen this company grow, expand, change, evolve, lows, highs, etc. when I first started several years ago it was a pretty large operation, yet still kind of in its beginnings. The techs were treated great not only by management, but by everyone in the company. As time went on, the years passed by and the company expanded, there was a lot of changes as you’d expect. However I felt the road techs treatment degraded over that time. Several incentives were taken or lost, you were seen less as an integral part of the company and seen more as a replaceable number (or magnet on the board). I’m very grateful for my time spent with this company, as I was young when I started and in my many years spent hear I did learn a lot. My people skills went through the roof, I learned a lot about several types of industries, and my leadership abilities were constantly growing and thriving. It all came with a price and a toll. Being a road warrior isn’t easy, especially when you have a family at home. Always being on call having to be ready at a moments notice can take a toll physically and mentally. Don’t make plans ever because as soon as you do, you’ll get the call. It has been a few years since my time here and talking to guys still there it has continued to change. The compensation is pretty good if you are willing to make some sacrifices. All in all it’s was a great learning experience for me personally, it’s just hard on home life. If you’re single and looking to travel all over the world for work, this is the place for you. You will learn some valuable skills, it’s the same kind of work day in and day out, but it’s also ever changing at the same time. Like I said I appreciated my time there and the many things I’ve learned, I just felt like the company changed too much from where it began and we grew apart.  

Overall, a good place to work. Ownership (at least initally) seemed genuinely concerned with the welfare of their employees. The Christmas parties were great!
Unfortunatly, they had a tendancy to sometimes let the the "inmates run the asylum".
I was let go in the spring of '04 with NO explanation. I loved my work and never had any kind of record of misconduct or substandard performance.
I subsequently obtained employment with a competing company who seemed glad to hire me on the spot. Afterall, I enjoyed this kind of work and was good at it.
I'll never forget the humiliation I felt when I recieved TWO intimidating pieces of registered mail...one from FedEx and one from the Post Office sent by the president of Conco demanding my immediate resignation from the new job I'd just taken.
Fortunately, with the support of a great attorney as well as as the principals of my new company I was able to maintain and advance in my new job, something that I was unable to to do at Conco mostly because of a manager that drank too much and didn't treat me very well.
In fairness, my experience with this company was nearly a decade ago. Hopefully, things have changed since then because I truly like and respect the family that owns this company.
As a postscript, I really don't want to give them a 5 star rating...maybe a 2 or 3. Nonetheless, something's wrong with this site so I've gotta punch in a 5 in order to register my submission.

I worked there for over 22 years. You can only advance to a certain point making it a dead end job. If you were either related to the owners or were in good with them you could move up quicker and possibly get offered a position that most others will not get offered.  The pay is ok, but for what they expect from you are very under paid. I left after my 22 years and I make more than double what I did in my best year there, doing a much easier job and not having to worry about a phone call telling me I have to go out of state for months at a time for work. It was a slightly better company when I first started. The pay was never great but the benefits were. That all changed for the worse over the years. Unfortunately, many people get stuck there since you make a decent wage, and they never look for other employment or they'd see that they could make more elsewhere without the stress and being away from home almost 9 months out of the year. They tend to hire people that were barely making over minimum wage so the pay seems great. The top paid road people are only making something in the mid to upper 20 dollar range. A few may be more than that but that falls into the friends and family part.

Working at Conco was mostly enjoyable. The hours were flexible and allowed for a good work/life balance. I learned a great deal about sales, as it relates to the sales culture and process. Sometimes I did not feel 100% supported by management and operations. We had a small office environment where mostly everyone got along well. I really enjoyed being able to schedule my week (for the most part) and travel a great deal; I saw a lot of places in my three years. On the contrary, being a small company made it hard to reach certain clients and levels, and the lack of support from upper management made it even more difficult. The aforementioned, plus an unrealistic desire to grow by gigantic proportions in a very short time period, made the gig very stressful.

While your working you're making good money. Long hours and tedious and repetitive work. You spend most of your time wet and jammed into tight uncomfortable places. If you are large in size you
 may have difficulty climbing in and out of the manway holes. If you are not in the click of friends with upper management you will not work often during the slow season.

What is the best part of working at the company?
None. No growth for employees to advance. Poor leadership, knowledge and training 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
No streamline structures, No teamwork, no professionalism 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very vintage and repetitive. New modern and advancement is needed

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Check the email box and send out emails waiting for any response

What is the best part of working at the company?
Travel and training for the job.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Being on a job longer than expected.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work culture is simple, come to work, do the job and go home. No candy coating.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Mostly prepping for the work day. Making sure you have the proper equipment and understanding the scope of the job.

Hardest part of this job is trying to get along with the people and hooking up the equipment when out on a job. Most enjoyable is maybe getting to see different places.  Management here is terrible. They don't look out for they people when work is slow u just sitting at home with no pay.. I believe ive learned is that the company only cares for the company and not the workers. I don't recommend this job to no one. 


You can earn decent money and travel at the same time earn travel benefits from the airlines used concerning
 frequent traveling which always comes into good use having time off between offline plant generation of power production. 

One of the best job that I ever worked at. Everyone is cool to worked and I like the traveling part, the hotel stay and overall working there. The company is a family oriented company and they are cool in working with everyone.
