Omark-Consultants

The training provided was fairly thorough. The job just really isn’t worth the compensation. You drove all over the state and New Hampshire to get to your work site. The travel really isn’t worth it, for $25 a day. The job itself, is not bad. The day goes by fairly quickly. Some days can be stressful to meet your quota, especially In rural areas. You can end up laid-off for long periods of time in the winter. However, that is more on National Grid. Overall it is not a bad job, if you are willing to walk 8-10 miles a day. You are usually alone so it is up to you to set up your own day to maximize productivity. Also I was often chasing my check on Friday’s but was always paid in the end. Definitely stick to yourself and the job can be decent. 60% of co-workers are insane so I understand why management can be on people’s case.

I enjoyed my position as a gas leak consultant for almost 4 years at Omark.  You are given a lot of freedom along with a lot of responsibility though it’s very manageable.   It’s an important job and you have all the support you need to learn and do it correctly.  One of the most important aspect of this job for me was building a resume to pursue Eversource and National Grid when I was ready.  So when I was ready for something more, I had the skillset to impress Eversource, land a great job and then ultimately end up at National Grid for a position even better suited to me.  Point being your experience here, treating your job with respect and importance will get you wherever you want to be whether it’s promotions within or opportunities out.  Overall I am grateful for the experience at Omark. 

Typical day of work is start by 7 and finish by 3. With some simple planning you have plenty of time to get your work done during that time period and are never rushed to complete more than expected. I learned a lot of what goes on in the natural gas industry and am able to take what I learned to move on to further my career. The supervisors that you deal with on a daily basis are excellent and are there for your support with what ever you need help with. Even though most days you work by yourself the supervisor are always there to assist you. Being able to make your community a safer place by finding hazardous gas leaks is always a great feeling and the most rewarding part of this job.

They are more worried about the client than their own employees. If you have a issue with a client they try and make it seem like they care but nothing ever gets done about it. People who are not bosses think they are and nothing is done about it. Decent job in a pinch but not worth the headaches. They make it sound great but once your invested it's all downhill. You basically have to give your two week notice to get them to listen to you. You can forget about holiday bonus or anything of that nature. Dead end job no room for advancement.

What is the best part of working at the company?
there was no redeeming qualities to working at this place. the management team is awful, the office environment is a disgrace. top bottom of the worst experience I’ve ever had working out an organization

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
dealing with management/office

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The worst, i can not explain how bad the people you work with are to each other.  

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
they expect you to travel and not get paid for your time .  it is the worst experience I’ve ever had at a place

Not a bad job, but it's dead end no room for advancement. Pay is okay nothing great but adequate for work. Its pretty easy mostly just walking checking the gas lines for leaks, inspecting meters etc. Obviously has its challenges though. 



Worked to this place almost for 3 years. They start by lying to you.  After training and certification they will sent you out to places all over the north/south shore. No one stays for too long, except the owner buddies. Everything changes several times during a week, it all depends on the owner's mood.
The car allowance do not even close covers the tear and depreciation on your vehicle. Everybody receives by paper check, and  everyone runs to the bank across the street to cash the checks to make sure they are not bounced. 
Stay away.

Decent paying entry level job where you get to work by yourself and as long as you do your job well you get left alone, no gas experience required, good bosses for the most part.  Job allowed me to gain experience and knowledge about industry and field and allowed me to springboard in to a career.

You are empowered and not micromanaged working here.  Everyone is easy to talk to and work with.  Learned so much about an industry knew nothing about.  They offer you the opportunity to join on an entry level with paid training, good benefits.  Being a self starter this is a great job learning something new

I worked two years at Omark and advanced my career and saw many other employees advance in their careers. It was a fast paced and there were often confusing situations. Most of which were driven by the corporation that Omark was working for. All in all, looking back my employment at Omark and its management team they did all they could to serve their client and their employee as best as they could.
