It is a very fast paced environment - therefore many managers do not have time to thoroughly train employees.  Employees become sucessful if they figure out a resource to assist them with things they need to learn to do their job better.  If you are an entry level person - the challenges are greater.  You must rely on your department co-workers, I.T. and the admin staff to assist you.  The I.T. department guys are very helpful on equipment but I often relied on the company admin staff to assist with Microsoft issues - otherwise I had to google how to use certain aspects of the various programs.  I was partially considered part of the admin staff but I did not report to the admin manager therefore - I fell behind the other admins over time - compared to the newer admins that were managed by admin manager.  The admin team's comrodery was impressive and I may have been able to stay with the company had I had a manager that would teach me more.  There is never a slow day - bordom does not exist in this compnay.  It is every day that you realize it is time to go home and you feel like you just walked in the door.  The upper level management is great and tries their best to interact with employees and they appear to appreciate everyone's efforts.   Mid level managers for 50% of the departments lack management skills - but the other 50% have great qualities that help the company continue to grow.  If you are a slow learner and are not comfortable learning on your own - this is not the company for you.  But otherwise, it a great place to work, stable, good benefits, freindly people and many have an open door policy - even the CEO.

I have been at Mansfield for 2 years and it has been a very positive experience. I know many of the reviews here are negative, but I have to say this company is aware of its' weaknesses and is trying to fix them. That is one of the reasons why I like working here, they see a problem - they try to fix it instead of ignore the issue. 

I have to agree that the long hours are embraced here, but it is definitely not required. I choose to work late, I am not forced to, and I don't do it all the time. Upper Management is actually great - not everyone - but especially the CEO. Michael Mansfield is a great guy and is very humble, he loves his employees and the company.

This is a great place to learn, if you don't want to move up in the organization and learn a LOT, then you might not be fit for the culture. It is very fast paced and there is always innovation going on at all times. 

The benefits are really nice, especially the tuition reimbursement, scholarship, volunteer day off, and free gym. Pay is OK, pretty much right at what the market pays, and vacation is fair.

Overall, Mansfield is a great place to work is you are willing to put up with a fast paced environment, you can handle the growing pains (some of the things mentioned here in other reviews), and want to learn/grow within the industry.

Mansfield is a rapidly growing business in a the huge trillion dollar energy industry with operations across the US and Canada.  The company is going through a transition from scrappy up and comer to established industry leader after adding nearly a billion dollars in new sales per year for the past 7 years.  This transition is leading to less seat of your pants decision making and management and to more structured process and procedures.  Employees who love the start up like environment of very demanding hours with huge highs but sometimes equally large lows may not like the transition, but those that crave more predictable work with more manageable hours and more structure to their job will love it.  Despite maturing the place is still rapidly growing and promotes mostly from within so upward mobility is good with new management and leadership positions all the time.  One downside to all this rapid promotion is that with lots of new managers some are learning on the job and are not as polished as all employees would like.  Despite this challenge the company believes providing employees with these first leadership opportunities is the right way to develop the best team overall and that it is the right way to reward and motivate employees with the talent and drive to succeed.

Great managers, friendly coworkers, new challenges every day. What more could you ask for? 

The HR team and the corporate leaders have taken care to create an inclusive and team-centric environment. Quarterly company meetings keep all employees informed of progress toward current goals and upcoming hurtles. 

There are many opportunities for professional growth. Management recognizes the benefits of retaining and building good talent. 

COVID showed the company that employees can be trusted to meet deadlines and be productive from their assigned work space or their home offices. Our excellent technology team keeps us equipped with the tools we need to be successful wherever we set up our workspace.

Best of all, I've witnessed my manager regularly step up to defend her team. I've seen her go out of her way to make sure teammates get the credit they deserve for extraordinary efforts. She works with each team member to make sure they have the tools they need to succeed and excel. 

The work is mentally challenging and deadline driven. If you're looking for a job where you can go through the motions and fade into the background for 8 hours each day, keep looking. If you want a role that stretches your capabilities and rewards your efforts, this is a great place to be.

This place is almost a replica of the movie "Office Space". If you aren't a butt kisser then this place is not for you. Supervisors have their "favorites" and if you aren't stuck so far up your supervisor's butt that you can tell what he/she had for breakfast then you might as well search for another job. Coworkers will refuse to do their work causing you to do double. When you confront your supervisor over 7 times in a 3 month period nothing gets done about it. Requesting off for Black Friday or Christmas Eve 1 year in advance does not mean a thing when the "favorite" wants to have off those days. The "Open Door" policy is just for looks....it's not really there. No one in any department knows what any one else's responsibilies are and no one takes responsibility for anything. The turnover rate is ridiculous. Stupid emails regarding the quality of the light roast coffee seem to be more important than anything. The Executive Assistant to the owner thinks she runs the place....she's just a secretary. You have to formally request for I.T. to do their job. The websites are always down and the systems are slow. The programs are less than par. I could go on and on.....

This is a large company, so the benefits are geared specifically for large corporations. The benefits do not benefit the employee. I left better benefits for the benefits I have with this company.  I have fantastic pay. 

Great people work here. We're tenacious.
Training was non existent. I trained myself.
Immediate management was fantastic. (They quit.) The coworkers are fantastic. (They come and go right now.) We have less than 20 people at this location. The majority have been here less than 5 years.

Training was poor. Upper management/corporate too busy trying to get sales. They need to actually focus on what we need to get our jobs done. Things could run much smoother if people just didn't pass the buck or assume others were working things.

This is also a job that can be done from home, but corporate insists that we come in. They treat what we do as a call center environment when this is not a call center environment. The job requires attention to detail, and you can't have detail when you're on the phones for the majority of your time doing follow up. 

I literally felt like I was working an old school Corporate America during covid. We were required to be in the office regardless of the situation when we could perfectly well do the job at home. Management was pretty much non-existent or focused on the bottom line of pulling dollars in rather than actually making sure their employees had everything that they need. I left at a time when many other people were leaving in the office who were not drivers. Upper management made it perfectly clear that they could not trust us to work from home so they required us to be in the office setting, which had mice running around at all times of the year. There were no cubes and the desks were separated by acrylic walls. There was no support for the call center whatsoever. Our concerns were never heard but always listened to. Things did not change in the two years that I was there, and even though they said they promoted from within, most people I spoke to said that they were passed over on a promotion for someone that they just hired in an interview process. Absolutely poor culture.

There have been many positive reviews put here recently in the past few months that are coming directly from upper management and executives. 

The negative reviews on this company are completely accurate. 

This company is extremely unethical and blind to what is causing the high turnover rate. 

The only department that I think has any worth is the HR department. The group understands the frustrations of the employees however their hands are tied with most instances because most complaints have nothing to do with employment laws. 

While working at Mansfield I did learn quite a few things while at MOC and I am grateful for that. I did not think highly of management but there's nothing I could do about it when the boss and the boss's boss are weekend boating buddies. Most of the coworkers were extremely unpleasant to be around and basically snobbish. The hardest part of my job was biting my tongue. The most enjoyable part of the job was when I walked out the front door on my last day.

Stay away from this company if you are looking to grow.  This is a great place for someone who is seeking a position that they can stay in for the duration of their career.  Co-workers are nice, but management is very open with their desire that you work hard with little investment in training or tools to do your job.  Most newcomers become frustrated and leave within a year of their start date.  The company turned over a fourth of its employees in the last year and there have been no significant changes by management to address this very real problem.  Nepotism also runs rampant within the company.  Again, it's fine if you want to finish your career in the same chair you started in; but that is much different than what is being sold to new recruits.

Management is constantly restructuring. Management and Dispatch would turn a blind eye when drivers were going over there hours but in the safety meeting, they would bring up safety, talk about hypocrisy. They want you to engage during the safety meeting but when you do engage and talk about the problems, they just gloss over the problems and say that they will get to it   People  who were there the longest stayed at the pay they were originally hired on at while newcomers (drivers) would start at a higher pay. While employed (15 months) there not once was I given a raise.  Dispatch would mess up and would blame the driver and throw the driver under the bus. You would schedule in advance time off but when the day comes, they don’t remember that you scheduled that time off. The lead drivers are never happy.  I could go on and on.
