there were not a lot of typical day at work we were working on a naval base so there was alot going on around us it was hard to stay foused. but it taught me to keep my mind on the task set before me after the first couple of days it was second nature. management was good they all knew you and took time if you had a problem to listen and help you out with the problem. my coworkers were some of the best guys i worked with people i can call my friends there was no hate or bad blood between any of us now i am sure we made each other mad got upset at one another but face it you spend more time with the guys at work than your own family.the job was not hard it had its moments were it would make you wonder why am i out here but i remind myself when it gets hard that i have my wife and my three kids at home depending on me to work and that is the most enjoyable part of my job is that i am working supporting my family

It was sad to leave Orion Marine Construction because I enjoy the duties as Accounts Receivable Specialist. My duties were posting the daily cash receipts, applying DM's and CM's as needed. I enjoyed calling on customers for payment status since everyone was very pleasant. I also filled out all forms for new customers and sent updated 1099's when needed. Each month end executed without any problems and reports were made and filed. Special projects were requested and done on a timely manner. Month end closing always ran smoothly for me. Assisted auditors several times during the quarter closing and year end. Worked on special projects when needed.

I was blessed with a wonderful boss.

Was a great company and possibly still could be.  The person who runs the accounting department is unqualified and lacks the interpersonal skills needed to head up a large group.  Multiple complaints have been made that have escalated to upper management (CFO and CEO) Still no improvement and nothing planned to improve the situation.   At this point  it is either deal with the way it is or find a new job.

I enjoyed the work. However I had to supervisors that were very different. It was my first time working on barges. So I didn't know everything I need to fully understand the movement related to it and my first supervisor did like me asking questions. So it took long for me to understand what was needed. My second supervisor let me ask questions and was much easier to work with and I understood better

Senior management wanted a culture which they were not willing to support at the end of the day.  Reduced costs and organizational efficiencies were expected, but key team members were not held accountable or required to function as a team or follow the rules established to reach strategic plans.

After having left Aker Solutions, I elected to focus on my non-profit foundation and work freelance as a paralegal. I have had the good fortune in working at many wonderful places, or working for wonderful clients.  Unfortunately, Orion was one of the worst experiences of my 38+ years of work experience.

One management entity, lacked essential people skills. Not viewed as a "Team Player" by any means. Other members of management were supportive. The workforce were the true definition of team players.

The on site supervisors for the dive crews are excellent.  So long as you are on a job there is no problem.  The management at the headquarters however leaves room for improvement.  If you are not on a job you can expect to have work of little importance on a daily basis, a graded down pay scale, and a hostile to semi-hostile work environment.
