As a black man, who has had difficulty finding a good company to work for where I don't feel discriminated against, working at EMC was a breath of fresh air. I enjoyed working with my fellow coworkers, foreman and superintendent.  I was given the opportunity to train and run my own crew, which I am still grateful for. The project manager who hired me was a fair and respectable man who was looking forward to me moving up within the company. I was not able to continue with the company only because of my transportation, but I can't say enough about this company and the people I worked with there. Great pay, great benefits, great people.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The fact that they used to NEVER lay employees off, yet that's exactly what happened to me in the end.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Production, sometimes they expected more than was possible. Go, go, go, get it done, get it done, get it done.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It was fair for the most part, but in the end it got a bit hectic. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Same as every other sheet metal duct company. If you've worked in the field before you'll know what to expect.

This company is now known as Vortex metals.

While working here it can be really high pace and rewarding,  or very slow and stressful.  Being busy is amazing,  but management can get on edge with the slow season.  The sheet metal teams can change drastically. 

Communication can be better,  but it's a work in progress.  Office and workshop floor has serious disconnects sometimes. 



They want to get you for as cheap as they possibly can. You only get 5 PTO days. The president of the company is only concerned with his own financial growth. Training is an absolute joke. The only benefit is working with a few good-hearted people who are there simply to collect a paycheck to provide for their families. RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN FROM THIS NIGHTMARE.

This is a production driven company that doesn’t value safety and doesn’t respect it’s employees, management are very egotistical and if you have an opinion then you are frowned upon. I do not recommend working here, there are many other companies out here that you’ll probably be better suited for especially if your a decent worker.

Decent pay and benefits. Definitely corporate entity and getting more so daily… some great guys. Some not so great. Like anyplace else…. Just show up, do your job, and get your paycheck. If you do that along with staying out of the drama, it will be alright… hopefully 

There is not enough hours or overtime and winter sometimes employees are out of work for weeks at a time. Very hard to pay bills and take care of family in that kind of environment.

I started as a helper here, i worked here 6 months & a good 2 months there was no work; we would still get paid but to sit in the truck not being productive or learning. I still don’t know basic bathroom plumbing which to me is absurd… absolute waste of 6 months

not much to elaborate on, they pay for school, the managers are nice. I just need seventy more words, I don't see why this is required, blah blah blah.

Love the folks I work with. Everyone wants to do the right thing. There isn't a push from Upper Management to cut corners for the sake of profits. Integrity!
