OmniTRAX, Inc.

I learned many useful skills while at OmniTRAX, but the company was hard to advance in. The IT department was pretty stagnant, and the rest of the company would not budge without a higher ups order.

A typical day at work involved maintaining a ticket queue as well as a phone queue. I learned how to use batch files, remote software, and office 365. The company was very good at introducing me to new things. The workplace culture was decent, but there was a lot of superiority issues as well as complaining about trivial things.

The hardest part of the job was certainly the push-back attitude of most of the employees. If it could any way be related to IT, I was forced to solve the issue, even if that meant going outside of the scope of what was normally expected of IT.

The most enjoyable part was getting stranded and having to figure out solutions without assistance. What others might have considered stressful, I often found quite enjoyable.

It was difficult to leave this job but my family and I had to relocate.  I worked 3.5 days a week and got 40+ hours a week every week.  My manager was great to work for.  He did a great job with the tools he was given and made sure that we were taken care of.  He could have used another manager to assist him as we were pretty busy but things worked well.  The company worked hard to ensure safety was the top priority.  One down side to this job was that we had to work 4 weeks of days then 4 weeks of nights but we only had to work 3.5 days a week and an on-call day every now and then.  We didn't get a lot of overtime unless we worked the on-call but the overtime was nice when it was available.  We had great benefits and a lot of vacation.  Pay was okay as I left there making close to $19 hr.  We had new equipment to work with as well which was nice.

This is horrible company to work for. The pay is low and the hours are long.  They will offer a low salary and work you 12hrs a day 6 days a week, give you 24 hrs off ( they have a waiver from the short line association and FRA to only give you 24 hrs off after 6 days straight) and you start it all over again.The worst part is they don't have to pay you any extra if they choose not to. To be honest it may not always be that way,  but if they need to you, will work like that. They will most times be in a perpetual state of being short handed because of there unwillingness to pay their workers a living wage and constant management changes. Most will move on to a class 1 railroad who pays well. So if you can live with being treated badly and being severely underpayed, then you could be a conductor and then a locomotive engineer.

Going to work for Omnitrax sounded like a great opportunity for a job on the railroad and possible higher up jobs on for other railroads...Working for the management there was the ABSOLUTE WORST! They do NOT care for there employees and only want to cover their own tails! The road master has absolutely no people skills and treats his employees TERRIBLE! No room for advancement, terrible pay, treated terrible. Would only recommend this job to people if you do not care about your personal life (outside work),  being threatened to be terminated if you slip up, do not mind getting yelled frequently and overall just treated terrible...Omnitrax is a good company, just poorly managed in the area of Albany/Adel

A typical day at work is making sure my executives are set for their meetings so I print out their calendars and have daily meetings with each one.  I set up meetings/conference rooms.  Take phone calls and screen them.  Take care of travel/hotel/car for the executives.  I am always multitasking.  I love working with all my co-workers.  We work as a team to accomplish whatever needs to get done.
I think the hardest part of my job is when I take vacation and I feel like I still need to be in contact so technically I am not on vacation.  The most enjoyable part of my job is the associates that I work with.

As a former Director of Housekeeping at Country Club Towers and Gardens, I can honestly say my experience was incredibly rewarding. The Broe Group/OmniTrax fosters an environment where operational excellence is prioritized, and they truly value the expertise you bring to the table.
What stood out most to me was the company culture, it’s professional yet supportive. I felt empowered to lead my department and implement efficiencies that made a real difference. If you are a results-oriented leader who thrives in a dynamic environment, you will find a lot of success and satisfaction here. I am proud of the work we accomplished and highly recommend them as an employer!

Working at the Big Lake Terminal is very relaxed with poor management. New manager gets walked over by all the other employees and doesnt know how to be a manager. Tons of thing have fallen behind drastically and nobody wants to really work. Employees just show up to get their paychecks and they to skate their way around having to do real work as much as they can. They tax more money from your paychecks the more you make. Don't recommend ever working overtime because of that reason. Starting pay sounds good until you receive your paycheck.

OmniTRAX offers a fast paced work environment. Career advancement opportunities are available if you are looking to learn from an entrepreneurial leadership team highly focused on strategic growth in the real estate, transportation and energy sectors you will enjoy employment with this organization.

The manager is a complete moron who is just a title chaser. The on call and work hours are ridiculous. The track is you run on is horrible and if you derail it's automatically bad train handling not the sorry track you operate on. The company cares less about the employees. Your to only be safe when the job doesn't need finishing. If it needs to be done do whatever it takes. They are always out to get you and have mangers from other railroads hiding in the bushes watching. You would be much better off getting a job at Ns or Gennesee and Wyoming railroad.

Company needs restructuring. 

Pay is not adequate to the work that is performed. 
It can be very dangerous work. 
Train cars are unforgiving. You have to be safe every second of the day or night and keep your head on a constant swivel.  

In our yard/ location, we were on a rotating schedule and the shifts were 12 hours long. 

They send you off for training after being hired. Not the greatest reimbursement setup. 
Very Small boot/clothing allowance for the year. 

Not really a favorable company to work for. 
Would only advise if you're looking to gain experience and need a way to get you're foot in the door.
