it had the potential to be a great place. The manager asked me to spy on other coworkers to the point of taking pictures (which I refused to do so she got one of the installers to do it) I honestly think it was just the one person making it miserable for everyone. The owners were great but out of touch to what exactly was going on in their office. No warning system set up just a nope we decided you just don’t fit in here any more. A certain manager bad talked and made fun of other employees to their peers and customers to the point of making  fun of the way they walk and dress basically and mean girls attitude.  Customer complaints where met with the manager bad mouthing the employees and saying they are just to dumb to get things right. Mind you this was all just the office part in Bellville but I image if this was acceptable behavior for an office staff manager it’s probably acceptable through the company. I could go on with more horror story’s in just the short time I worked there it’s just not a good place to work.

First of all, this company lies to you, when i got hired i was told that we would be trained  on driveing the trucks and  wouldn't start to drive untill 3 months of employment. Also they said that when your pay gets switched to piece rate that it will be the same if not better pay than the 15 dollars an hour you start with, they tried to make me drive a huge box truck on my 6th day with no training at all, and when you get on piece rate they pay you 6 CENTS  for every foot of insulation you install, which would add up to be below minimum wage. On top of that they are very unprofessional and give little to no training at all and let people who wreck trucks and call off every week to stay but will fire a brand new guy for stepping on a hose on the ground. If you want to risk your life being on wobbly rusty scaffoldings with no side bars putting in insulation for under minimum wage, this job is perfect for you.

NCI is a family-owned company and the owners are kind, however there are many problems among management that needs worked out. I did not get adequate training for my position and had to jump right in. Fireplace service during the busy season can get up to 3 weeks behind due to only having one scheduler, communication is lacking, management is not encouraging or positive, nor clear in their expectations, and complaints from customers have no defined streamline for handling them. The company is conservative owner and politics are openly discussed. There was a lot of blatant homophobia and transphobia, as well as Trump discussion which made me feel uncomfortable and out of place. I do have to say the owners were very kind accommodating me when I relocated and resigned, and my manager was flexible for my medical appointments. However, the environment needs improved!

If you are looking for a job that won't give you a raise, will expect you to do the job of Installer, manager, and salesman for the paycheck of a McDonald's employee, you have found the right place! NCI advertises very good pay, but it sure doesn't show on your paycheck as they refuse to pay you for close to 15 hours each week, almost a full week of work each paycheck! Save your back, mind, and spirit, and just find somewhere else to work! Their chronic understaffing problem will become your problem, and you will work 50+ hours a week, and can fight to recieve your overtime benefits.

This place seems like the longer you work there the more they treat you like  Garbage They expect you to do a 2 man job with only yourself They'll give you really  junkie equipment Expect you to drive 2 hours or more awayAnd do a job by yourself which only pays  you a $100 to a 150 day  So you'll load your truck in the morning for free  stock the house with insulation for freeYou get lied too constantly they just want you to finish the job so the company gets more money in their pocketAnd there's a lot of favoritism 

Too much expected of employees.  They are severely understaffed for the amount of work they take on.  They expect you to do slave labor for 60 hours a week while barely paying you.  If you're a good worker, you get punished by being given more/difficult work while slackers are gifted easy jobs and half days.

I was ready to go on pay rate after 2 months, where I would've been making about $4 more dollars an hour.  After 5 months and countless promises to be put on pay rate, I moved on.

Some people in the company are pleasant to work under but the majority are clueless about how bad some situations are.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Good boss that's talks and explains everything 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When other people want to get in to your work instead of there work 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Love working in New place every day. Outside 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Get work order Load everything u need go to job site install everything go back to shop and go home for the day

I have been happy for years in this company but time has passed it by and the future looks poor unless younger people can be brought in. 
If younger people are brought in this company has the potential to be great again.
It does have the potential to be great for a younger person, I feel I have hit the ceiling as far as my potential.

Management accommodates favorite employee and doesn't care about other fellow employees. If you go above their head, he doesn't like it and will make sure your pay check suffers. Also, being made to work like slaves is never fun either, so with that being said the pay could be better. 

You start out making $15 an hour for training then piece rate after that which is fine except the have favorites and they get the money jobs while you end up making around $9 an hour and they want you to have about $800 worth of tools but don’t want to split the jobs up evenly. They hours are awful and management is more interested in making friends then managing a company
