I worked for Mundy Companies as a fitter/welder. We had to pass several x-ray certifications for carbon pipe, stainless pipe and 309 on pipe. I also passed a heli-arc heavy plate certification. I was driving 2hrs a day to work and 2.5hrs home everyday. They would not provide any per diem or even compensation for gas. The hourly pay rate was well below average for what I usually get paid for x-ray pipe. That being said. The superintendent and foreman for the Chattanooga site were great. They both had experience in the fabrication and mechanical maintenance Fields. The fabrication shop was nice and we always had the tools and materials we needed. Outages went smoothly and you were not "bird dogged". They hire you in to a job and they let you do it. I had to do a critical weld on one of the skids on the first floor. The safety was great. They had the fire team set up ready to hose and let me set up the purge system and length of purge as the system had avery low flash point. The management stayed out of the way and let me do my job. If the rate of pay was higher I would have kept making the 4.5hr a day drive.

This could be a great company but there is a lack of support. It’s a very cut throat atmosphere in where safety is always talked about but production is put ahead of it. Management has been at the plant a shorter time than a lot of the workers, yet doesn’t listen to employees concerns about safety. Employees are made to walk 7 minutes, around 1/2 mile or more from the gate where badging in to the actual work building. Employees are kept at low pay and made to do multiple jobs without any compensation. On your days off don’t expect to get any rest or enjoy time with your family because you will be called and pestered to come into work. This same place will also tell you to find another job when you ask for overtime. They are all about using people, and not helping grow employees. I would not encourage anyone to work there unless you plan on being broken, and not treated as a human.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The entire staff is professional and very helpful loved the paid holidays and paid vacation. Very good company to work for.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Hard to find Heliarc rig and alot of welding equipment.  I wish Mundy would allow us welders to bring in our welding rigs it would be alot more efficient in completing welding jobs. More organized.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very professional. I would like to see Mundy get more pipe contracts and keep employees busy working. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Go to field measure and sketch pipe system that you are assigned to build then go to shop gather all parts cut pipe to measurements and start fabricating.

Before working here, I stopped by and applied. No one ever called. After getting a recommendation in a different state I was working with a different company, I was referred by someone. They pulled my app immediately and had me on their next project. After getting in I was told you pretty much have to know someone to get in no matter how great your experience is. 12 hrs a day, 7 days a week. Management is ok. These companies tend to hire some unprofessional people. These people work for clients and do not realize their reflection of the company. Due to the behavior of some, after being laid off I decline the next project with them. Great pay, but the chemical plants pays Mundy and other companies WAY more than you actually get from the company itself. The client pays $60 an hour for me, but the company will only pay me $16 or $17 of that. Know your worth

A typical day at work involves a routine safety talk and then a understanding quiz. I learned how to do boiler-making, millwright, and how to run a successful crew. The management would not come out of the office as much as I would like, but the management would make sure that you had what you need to do the job. The safety was the best however, they would go out of their way to make sure that everyone was coached properly on safety and asked questions due to safety. The hardest part of the job was being on call outs or working two 16 hour shifts back to back. This company would give out yearly gifts to those who came on time to work. I rate this company based upon my experience.

My typical day here at the Mundy Companies is great. I have all my responsibilites that I know I have deadlines on and I have no one looking over my shoulder babysitting me. Then I have my AP dept next to me where we somewhat joke spiratically throughout the day, not all day. The hardest part of my day is starting a project close to 4pm, knowing that I will have to make myself come to a stopping point. The most enjoyable part of my day is knowing that I've cleared my desk and well, that I've rediscovered my desk. Overall, my job here at the Mundy Companies is awesome. I loved the company from day one. I'm very fortunate that I have a personality that fits in with everyone here.

Only suck-ups get ahead and the upper management try to pit the employees and teams against each other, at least in the Baytown site. For such an old building and them not wanting to fix mechanical issues it is always the employees fault when something goes wrong. You better hope you have one of the decent forklifts and it doesn't mess up on you because if it does, they only listen to the mechanic who doesn't even work for the same company. Conflict of interests anyone? As if he wants his company to look bad when he can blame the average joe worker. Other than management it is not a bad place to work pay starts at $14.42 and caps at $20. They say every 3 months raises but then they find reasons to push it back farther.

Working for the Mundy Companies was an amazing experience. It was my first job at a chemical plant, so everything was new to me. In this plant, we made different kinds of rubber which are used for vehicle tires. I was in charge of cleaning all sorts of equipment all over the plant. Even though I worked long hours and it was a lot of physical labor, I enjoyed my job because I was always busy. I learned so much in this job and acquired not only physical strength, but also a great variety of knowledge about safety, communication, and teamwork. My co-workers and supervisors were great people also. They always valued my hard work and working with them felt as though I was with my family.
