Four Seasons Environmental

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of my job with Four Seasons Environment was finding another job. I found out working in a Union Shop as a Non Union Supervisor was a complete joke. The Union employees are a protected species. 90% of these individuals couldn't make it in the real world of Maintenance, where you have to prove yourself competent. If you are like the 90 % I fore mentioned then FSE would be a perfect home for you.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Directing incompetent Union Employees making prevailing wages 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I can only speak for myself. It's like working with green help everyday 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Not my idea of honest work. I see why the American economy is in such bad shape.

I love the hours, but the job has stop being challenging about 7 years ago and I have falling out of love with it. Love the CDC customers and a few of coworkers. FSE is an excellent job for people who are about to retire (55 years old and up.) and are on Medicaid, Medicare or spouse insurance. There are a lot of things that could be a lot better like communication, advancements, cheaper insurance and more respect. But I do like the flexibility in hours and the ability to make up hours when out from work. If you are looking for a guaranteed check every week this is the place to be, but don't expected anything more. OK you will get a couple of cookouts during the holidays and a Christmas Gift Card which used to come with a Honey Bake Ham Gift Card back when I started, I guess they stop loving us a little.

Although I have a unique role with in the company, I feel I have the full support of all of the management and staff. The company has a perfect balance of taking care of the customer and the needs of their employees.
As a full time contractor for one, remote customer, there could be a tendency to exclude me from company functions. this could not be further from reality.
All of my customer locations are no less than 1 hour travel time each way. Most of my tasks revolve around HVAC/R preventative maintenance and other construction disciplines. Probably the most difficult part of my job is the early start! The best part of my job, other than the work itself, is the people I work with. I have learned so much since I started here 10+ years ago.

Management out of Ohio forced Medical insurance on the Employee's that cost $800.00 a month with a $7,000 deductible for a single family. The family plan cost $2,800.00 a month plus a $13,000 dollar deductible. So when they tell you your fringe benefits is $4.68 you do not receive that money for you retirement  that money is for your insurance plus you will have money coming out off your pay check. If you are at retirement age with Medicare you still are not allowed to use Medicare as coverage.  

This is just a start , I want get into the incompetence of the Supervisors.

Pros: 
Family centered environment with friendly staff and workers. Management seems to be showing more care for the individual lately. Company provided health insurance is no longer mandatory. You are able to use your own healthcare provider to better meet your circumstances.

Cons:
Processes can seem antiquated at times. The management can seem a bit clique-esque at times, as the business is run by a family. Company provided health care is exceptionally expensive as the company workforce tends to be older individuals having or being at higher risk for health problems.

Inspect the Central Energy before taking over the shiff turnover. Insptecting before hand allows you the oppertunity to know the conditin of the Plant.Managing equipment is the person duty responebility.Setting high standars for others causes them to want to their best too.Working with High Pressure Boilers and Low Pressure is always challege. This is one of the reason I enjoy my proffeson.

In the Central Utilities Plant at the CDC, I worked in the cooling plant. I learned the operation of the cooling engines – three Trane CenTraVac 2000 Ton Capacity Chillers which were controlled through a Johnson Controls B.A.S.  I was one of a three-man team tasked to overhaul a chiller which had developed refrigerant leaks.  Here I gained invaluable experience and an even more thorough knowledge of the chiller and reconditioning of its various sub-systems and their components.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Make my own schedule to meet client needs. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Benefits are terrible, compared to other Engineering based companies. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Family atmosphere, most employees have been working their job.

This is an absolutely fabulous place to work. The management is top-notch, very concerned with the employee's well being and benefit. They strive to go the extra mile for the customer and hold high regard for their employees.

Office staff is awesome. Friendly and always there to help when you need them.

I really miss working here.
