I worked there--- my worst day was when I started and the best day was my last day there......

Best parts of the job--

hmmm, few,  you helped people with their needed oxygen for living,  co-workers were easy to get along with, company provided jackets and uniforms, a pizza once in a while.

Worst parts of the job--- 

<<company would drag their feet on providing the right tools to let you do your job--  carts with broken wheels/ bent 2 wheelers/ leaking liquid oxygen hoses and a whole lot more.
<<company would not pay any overtime past 40 hours--  straight time all the way.
<<company training was by work of mouth and maybe sometimes on paper.
<<company promised customer delivery on a very shaky schedule-- impossible to make all deliveries-- result = very upset customers.
<<there were never any performance reviews or raises ever given that I know of.
<<there was no planning at all for the routing by the management, the drivers ended up making the routes  work all the time.
<<there never was any incentives to do a good job, oh maybe a pizza once in a while.
<<for being a gas filling business , the building was a real mess with trash on the floor, except for the new addition.
<<there was high turnover among drivers and supervisors.
<<if you were a driver, you had to be on call for that week , after hours (on a rotation basis)-- again, no overtime pay-- you had to be assigned a cell phone-- sleep with it next to your bed and hope it doesn't ring at 1AM for someone needing CO2 for their bar or Oxygen....
<<benefits were very limited, 6 holidays, 1/2 PTO day per month for the first year, then one PTO  day per month  after that. If you had the flu or sick you could just dip into your PTO days that you had earned!!! (PTO= personal time off).
<<I am sure I missed some more things , but I do not want to take up any more of your time searching for a decent place to work.

I suppose if you were completely broke, you liked to work 50 to 60 hours a week with no overtime pay, had no other obligations like your family or hobbies this would be the job for you!!!

7/14--Now they are looking for a Driver Trainee Supervisor and a Warehouse Trainee Supervisor. If you would like to investigate these opportunities, stop by their Bridgeton, MO location at 13534 NW Industrial, This is a family owned company based out of Omaha, Nebraska.  I am sure they would love to talk with you about a "career" opportunity. Good Luck!!!

Honesty- they do not pay overtime. Grandfathered in. Salary employees will work more then their 45 hours due to a lack of staffing and retention. 
Integrity- They will not tell you this. They will hide behind a 40 hour work week. Find one employee who does. Terminates employees’ based on emotion not facts. 
Service to others- if you ask a question that isn’t a priority. Be prepared to wait weeks or months for a answer. Even if it is federally mandated. 
Teamwork- Will disband your team if they see them as a challenge to their power. Won’t be there when you need staffing or equipment. 
Commitment- Money is the leaderships focus. If you can’t dedicate all your time to include above normal hours of operation you will be discarded. 
Dedication- You better be willing to do 2-3 positions and with no regard to your concerns. It will be looked at as complaining. 
Life balance- Give all of your life to this company. Don’t mention family or they will throw that in your face. Yes, even the death of your child is fair game. 
Continuous Improvement- Won’t accept new ideas or concepts unless created by the greater minds. A.K.A. President or VP. 
I highly recommend asking specific questions and getting the answers in writing. Otherwise it will just be forgotten and twisted to their own desire. 



I’m incredibly grateful for my time at Helget Gas Products. It’s a company built on strong values, and that foundation shines through in so many of the people I had the privilege to work with.

The drivers and customer service teams in particular are the heartbeat of Helget. They embody the company’s core values every day: Honesty and Integrity, Team and Service to Others, and Continuous Improvement. Work-life balance is another of those values—and it’s been encouraging to see how that’s being more fully embraced after my resignation.

During my time as Talent Acquisition Specialist, I had the opportunity to help grow a strong, authentic team—working alongside some of the most hardworking, genuine people I’ve ever met. Together, we built something meaningful, grounded in purpose and driven by a shared commitment to serving our customers well.

Like any role, there were some challenges—particularly around flexibility and access to the tools that support success. It’s genuinely encouraging to see those things now being prioritized for new team members. Growth in that area is not only welcome, but well deserved.

I’m hopeful to see continued progress where it matters most.

If you are going to work for this company try to do so in any other state aside from Nebraska where the corporate HQ is located. The Owner and VP of the company will do all they can to ruin your team (No matter what department you work in) while micromanaging you every step of the way. They have MANY safety issues that are continually brought to their attention daily but they ignore them because "it would cost too much money to fix". If you are a bright, energetic, enthusiastic person that wants to grow, move up and be recognized for all of your hard work, this is not the place for you!! They will make you think that someday you will be able to lead your team and make a difference but the better you get at your job, the more threatening you become to them. Sad part is, there are a lot of great employees at HELLget gas but the two up top don't see that and won't allow them to do their jobs freely without suffocating them on a daily basis. Best part about working here is the day you get fired or let go before your 2 week notice is up just so they don't have to pay you Holiday pay. Such a greedy corporation with No Teamwork, No Work/Life Balance, No Commitment or Service to others and a ton of continual BS that you have to put up with on a day to day basis.

October,2012 - Former Employee,Did not live up to there Expectations and Fool a lot of people that are trying to get in there Doors,until they are let in and how the company is in such disarray and then the people are tearing the door down to escape and get away.Management is Horrible and pathetic,preach what they don't know are practice themselves to past,present,and future employees,They don't know (DOT) regulations and don't follow them even if they pretend to,very unsafe work place,equipment and vehicles,It's all about the dollar and put drivers life's at risk,when you tell them that trucks needs to be repaired or equipment needs to be replaced they ignore you and put it off,nothing was ever appreciated and never received a thank you or good job,always talk down to you,that is the Management,Ask any of the Employees that work there still and will say the same thing,that is the ones that are realist and veterans of the company,They are a inconsistent,inconsiderate,and negligent and unsafe company to work for,Beware and don't be fooled by deciet.

I worked for Helget Gas Products for 2 years in management. This gem of a company is a great place to kick start your career and transition into the majors.

Helget Gas Products is a family owned company, sole-proprietorship based in Omaha, Nebraska. Salary & Growth potential is somewhat limited. However, if you are the type of person that enjoys remaining at the same position for years, then this company is for you.

Mr Helget has no reservations giving you the autonomy to mold and shape your operation how you like it, as long as it falls within the guidlines of the FDA & Board of Pharmacy.

Salary and raises are mediocre and best, but the experience and knowledge gained along with the exceptional quality of life both at work and out of work is definatly a lucrative trade off.

Mr Helget is very easy to work with/for and he really does care about his employees.

I would not hesitate to recommend this company.

I was a driver there for less than a year and it was the worst experience that I had with an employer in my driving career. Here are my experiences.

1. NO raises and pathetic Salary positions for all drivers so there is no OT paid for the daily OT required.
2. Pay for your own uniforms and DOT physical if left co before 2 yrs.
3. Health Benefits are like a house payment, $700/mo for family of 3
4. They give you old broken down equipment and expect you to work efficently that way.
5. It's like being an Owner Operator
6. The drivers have to call all of their customers using their own phone to schedule all deliveries Everyday.
7. If you get into an accident, they make YOU pay THEIR $500.00 insurance deductable. You sign something agreeing to this upon hire.
8. Unsafe work enviorment, 100lb cylinders not secured in warehouse so they can fall at anytime.
9. On top of all this they like to call you at home
10. Treat employees like dirt
11. Manager lies to your face and so does the Supervisor
12. Turn over rate is very high, gee I wonder why?

This is a horribly managed company overall. Operations are out of Omaha and communication is terrible between the customers, Omaha and the local branches. There is no support available to you besides less than a handful of coworkers. Do not expect to work in safe conditions. The branch has rats running around, mold. leaks from the , roof, and all kinds of other hazards which have existed for years and they have no plan to fix. Hopefully your shots are up to date if you plan to use the restroom in the facility, there's no telling what you might catch. They care less about safety, and even less about you as a human being. There is no current employee that would ever recommend this place to anyone or speak highly of it. Your set up to fail here from the jump. They pay on the 1st and 15th, the medical coverage is a complete joke so you basically get zero benefits. The actual warehouse is a dump. You've been warned. 

Hired as Manager, but also forced to be a truck driver, laborer, installer and sales person in addition to what I was hired for. 
 Annual reviews/pay increases take place only after many months past due, only if you complain enough. 
 Safety rating for the company is so bad that the D.O.T. is required to pull over their trucks on site for inspections. Even after a driver fatality, they did not change their ways.  
**Compliance knowledge is Non Existent on any level in this company.
 One Manager thinks he must micromanage every decision and had even demanded that my drivers and myself break D.O.T. laws and got angry when I refused to allow it

This company preaches work life balance. Youre on call once a month for a week an expected to be available to help 14 hours a day and if any issue arises you are expected to go into work to take care of it. The company doesnt want you discussing pay with coworkers due to extreme discrepancies. The management here is an absolute joke. They have no idea how to run a company or support a branch. They throw whomever into a role and wait for them to fall. No formal training. Write ups due to lack of training. If you are considering this company I firmly suggest looking elsewhere at they are below industry pay and raises are scarce and pathetic at best. If I could rate this company lower than 1 star I would.
