What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I didn’t find anything stressful about working for their company


What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I really enjoy my time working with STI. I’m very serious about going back to work even though it’s a hour trip. I just really enjoy the environment and culture like I said there a wonderful company in the organization to work for and work with.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I worked in the finishing room has a needle operator running the needle machine. I had to select my material run through the machine if I run out of work to do, they were training me to work in the drawer on the dry machine and at the same time I worked a little bit in the warehouse, so you can stay busy person to work they can work but it’s not hard work. I really enjoyed it.

Commercial Insulation (various types/forms) across multiple job sites that includes excessive travel at times, average 1 to 5 hrs round trip (may include overnight stay but usually requires daily travel).  Job sites will vary from a location with no/minimal access issues to sites which require background and security clearances (Factory, Hospital , School/University, Pharmaceutical, etc).  STI is an Employee owned Company where the Board of Directors holds the voting rights of the Employee and make all necessary business decisions on their behalf.  Compensation can be received in a variety of forms and may or may not be all inclusive depending on the employees record (ESOP Stock, Dividends, 401K with Co. Match, Bonuses based on jobs completed under contract parameters x 2, Safety Bonus 1st and 2nd+ year). Being a Non-Union Company the  gap in prevailing wage to base pay on private jobs results in difficult family budgeting.

Working for STI is a longer sales cycle by the nature of their service offerings. We have superior services, technology and coverage in the marketplace. The customers opportunities are many, but can be  very niche relative to their primary business. It is important to get an audience with the key decision maker, given the opportunity to do so they quickly see the value and become very interested in the solutions we have to offer. Often time implementing a solution can be a lengthy process for the customer. It may involve changing freight terms. gathering months of data or changing packaging. When I am able to see it through to implementation it is very rewarding. Overall a fine company well positioned in their market.  

Most days we start by reveiwing driver s write up reports and prioratizing the trucks depending on the load ,which one needs to be fixed first, thers only three mechanics plus the forman, so we are short handed and it makes my job harder when one of the other guys has trouble and they need help , i dont mind helping others but when i dont have my work done i get yelled at for being to slow when in truth im faster than the other two.Me and the forman are the only two that have had any training on engines and transmissions so that makes for difficult times, since iv been at sammys iv learned alot about eaton automatic and power shift transmissions. I do probably do two clutch jobs month the most enjoyable time of my job is when i get to hear an engine run that iv built or drive a truck that iv worked on.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The new managers really listen and work hard to keep a balance in the company.



What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Being doubled booked at any given time.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Environment can be fast paced, but has its slow days as well.  Employees help with high-function patients as far as booking one-on-one.  Which is great help! The culture includes lots of Hispanics, but there are translators on staff.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Fast and moderately paced clients coming every 30 min, which helps when staggered throughout the day.

Typical day at work.....fixing everybody else's mess ups cause there's no accountability for nothing.  Sub par training. What i learned i learned on my own "trainers" don't train you. Management has their favorites and will lie to your face. It's like working at a junior high school, if you're not in the "cool pack" then you're treated like garbage. No overtime but they have their 5 people that is allowed to work all the overtime they want because "they have bills to pay". Hardest part of the job is the unaccountability of anybody employed there and dealing with inmates that are hired to work there. There was no enjoyable part of the job. It was dog eat dog in that place.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people are great to work for and great to work with.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with slow internet or faulty technology.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment is very relaxed and friendly. Everyone seems to enjoy working for STI. I've never heard anyone complain.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I worked from home so my day consisted of getting caught up on the latest trends and resources provided by STI. I would in turn train various schools and systems in the use of our products.

typical day at work i would pick up a loaded trl an deliver approx 200 mile radius. It took a long time to unload some of the pneumatic tanks were 50 yrs old and had issues. this would cause inconsistent pressure and allow for back ups in the line which would clog, costing even more time to unload. when i mentioned these issues to my dispatcher he treated me as if i were incompetent. when you unload from a new tanker 2000 or so then unload a 1969 tanker and have problems it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

I wouldn’t normally waste my time reviewing a company which’ll most likely go bankrupt in the next five years, but I feel an obligation to warn other professionals against becoming affiliated with this company. Don’t bother. Upper “management” have absolutely no idea what they’re doing, and often contradict each other. Pale, stale, male aptly fits the description of the powers-that-be, there; although they purport to be “minority owned”. That’s just one of the many lies they tell to acquire government contracts. That should be a clue, for you.

I would gladly go back immediately, if the opportunity presents. 
- Day at work? You walk in and concentrated on your work to get it done.
- Learning? The opportunity to get answers and full access to information
- Mgmnt? If client was satisfied and project made money, minimum interference.
- Culture? Do not be "Busy". Get thing finished, accomplished, DONE!
- Hardest part? To pay a price and lived with it after you messed up.
- Most Enjoyable? To be part of something that is awesome. Continuous recognition from clients, Managment and co-workers long after your project was finished.
