GEOTEK

There are so many things that makes this place a terrible place to work, but I can't possibly list them all - otherwise my review will be many paragraphs long.

The only thing you need to know about this place is that the turnover rate is insane. There was a time where 4 or 5 staff professionals put all of their resignation notices within the span of a week.

The work culture here is basically this: Work, work, work. Don't talk to coworkers for too long unless you want to get berated my management. Work, work, work.

Enjoy doing inspector duties as a staff professional, because you'll be asked to do that for quite a while. If you don't already have a SUV or pickup, you'll be asked to get one, since the company will not provide that. This is a way for them to push costs onto employees. Also, enjoy doing overtime inspection work as a salaried person. They will often asked salaried people in inspection positions to take up last-minute jobs, since they won't get paid overtime pay.

Management doesn't want you to be a minute too late. I mean this literally. If you come in a minute too late, you will get berated by management.  

The pay isn't even that good for what you're asked to do. And if you don't get a certain amount of certifications (for inspections) within a timeframe, you will get a pay deduction. 

This place felt more like an inspection company than an engineering company.

Avoid this place at all costs, terrible company, terrible management. Only looking to further their own agenda, and willing to throw you under the bus at any moment. My first day their I could immediately tell the work culture was non-existent and a horrid place to work. The most you get from this company is the knowledge of how to run a scummy business through certain verbiage and ways to falsify reports.  Their compensation is not nearly enough to deal with the bull you're gonna deal with management/hr. The only upside is that most of the people are chill and help the day go by

The culture they foster in the Las Vegas branch is very toxic and it creates a hostile work environment.
Management permits inappropriate behaviors with employees. 
Management is also aware of workers drinking and doing drugs on their work sites with the contractors and do nothing to remedy the situation. 
They lack structure and organization. 
Although they promise unlimited future potential they do not follow through. 
These are the reasons their retention rate is so low to include the average age person in mid 20’s.

Almost all the reviews are about the Las Vegas location. Don't let that sway you into not joining the GeoTek team. From the beginning, my management team have been super supportive about me trying to further my career and get me as many certificates as possible. My manager tries to keep things fair by making sure everyone has enough hours for the week by divvying up jobs equally. It's a no brainer that this place has great colleagues and wonderful managers. 

Tropical day at work is busy and a lot to learn. Management/HR has their favorites and its not for the hardworking employees,  they over work employees with little or no lunch break. Workplace culture is little to none.  There is no room for advancement as said in the interview process. The hardest part of the job is seeking any help from management or HR. 

Poor management on the corporate level. The CEO is a joke with no people skills. No opportunity for professional growth. I will say that on a local level the co-workers are great including department managers. Very crooked company policies and non-existent HR. If you are looking for a future in your career avoid this place.

It's a soulless place everyday is the same day and its just physical work. Everyone that works there hates it and is constantly looking for new employment else where. You will do the same thing everyday all day endlessly. 

A good company for a young professional to grow with. Geotek has several different opertunities for people to learn and become a professional. They do various different types of inspection and testing.

They berate you in front of others, while they laugh.  Denied to take lunch and break.  You can do NOTHING right, even if you didn't do it.  They don't care

caring company and family friendly ,employees look out for each other on a daily bases . all jobs are well explain to better understand what your dealing with .
