Mid-State Industrial Maintenance

This company used to be a great company to work for. They paid well, they paid good travel pay, they were understanding about maintaining a work/home balance for employees sanity. As the company got large the management looks out for themselves and the company first and foremost. You are cattle. They make promises of raises they dont keep, they treat you less than human even though you put in ridiculous hours to ensure a project gets done. Then they do vindictive things like give you 8 hours in a week if you bring up your concerns with how things are going within the company. They are cut throat to the work force who are doing the REAL work and are the backbone that generates the revenue which the company survives upon. You are a just a number and can be replaced is how they view you. Good luck climbing the ladder with them. You have to cut throats or be a kiss up to make it up, hard work gets you nowhere.

3 years with the company can’t get a raise can’t advance unless your related or friends with upper management.. management looks out for themselves and treats us like cattle.. we keep the company profitable but treat us like second class citizens.. the pay is way to low for journeyman craftsmen especially since they expect you to travel on a days notice and expect you to work the crapiest jobs known to man.. you ask for a raise and they just give you more hours like that’s the goal.. we need more money across the board.. cost of living is skyrocketing out of control… McDonalds employee are living better than us 

I went into this company not knowing anything about industrial maintenance or phosphate mining. In the year I was at Mid-State I grew mentally and professionally. I started in the the Toolroom and a few months later got advanced to the Purchasing Department where I became a Procurement Administrator and Inventory Analyst . If you're willing to work they are willing to advance. You're surrounded by very knowledgeable peers and the management isn't bad. I highly recommend Mid-State Industrial Maintenance. 

I was originally hired as a Full Time crane operator. In reality you're a Full Time Laborer with a CCO. Dont be fooled, everyone there is forklift certified so the only thing you'll be operating is a fire extiguisher. They'll pull you as a firewatch and hole watch. You'll be working for one of their biggest customers, Mosaic (overwhelming smell), and reporting to foremen that dont know the difference between a shackle and a come-along. Will you operate the 30 ton crane they have onsite? Absolutely not. If you have a CDL A and a CCO apply somewhere else, plenty of jobs out there.

Today I started At 7 AM and learned that I didn't have enough studs to get started on my new project so I cut the studs I needed to begin working on my project. when my supervisor told me that a project that was previously working on that got put on hold because we were waiting on parts was finally ready to go and he was giving it to a coworker because I was busy at the time. 

I’ve had a great experience working with Mid State Industrial Maintenance. The company provides a professional work environment, solid opportunities to learn and grow, and a team that genuinely supports one another. Management values hard work, safety is taken seriously, and the projects are challenging in the best way. It’s been a great place to build my welding skills and gain real-world experience. I would highly recommend Mid State to anyone looking for a rewarding career in industrial maintenance and welding.

This company grew from a small family business and it is very clear in the workplace in a positive way. Everyone is familiar, kind and respectful with each other across all departments. The workload is large for everyone...Staying past 5pm is not abnormal. The work they do speaks for itself and their dedicated employees. Great company overall that just needs some help in the management area

All the guys I worked WITH, were super great helpful guys.
All the guys I worked FOR, only cared about numbers and picked favorites. Some rules applied one day and not the next and some rules applied to some guys but not the rest.


What is the best part of working at the company?
Absolutely nothing they are a bunch of racists

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
If you are not on the weird little clicks you will not last no matter how good you are

Ive worked for mid-state for about 16 years, and always had work if i wanted more hours. If i needed off it was only a text away. Very safely oriented and if you dont know something, they will help you learn.
