What is the best part of working at the company?
I have put a lot of thought into this. This was my first solar company! I came in the company with equipment operator experience! I was told I needed to learn the field first before I jump into any equipment! Very smart so I started Q/C. After learning the map I was switched to spotter for offloading. After that position I went to survey! Signal is an amazing company to start out with. You get a chance to work with all kinds of folks from all over the world! Learn new languages! Build new relationships that will last a life time. Yes it’s hard work! Yes you work in the snow but they pay well! Everyone has their own experience and even thou I was let go. I am blessed to be given the opportunity! Thank you

Watch your back cause someone going to try and get you. If you do your job right their jealous. A lot of drama for a lousy job that don’t appreciate good employees.

The company cares for its employees and tries its' best to give them everything they need. Field hours tend to be extensive and can be challenging at times. Management is well layered and defined. The company is growing and has a bright future in the construction industry. The hardest part of the job is appeasing your client as well as your own company's standards and and goals.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Early start. Don't know a half day if it will be a half-day or an overtime day. Most days spent doing busy work, pretending to be busy trying to look busy because there wasn’t actually productive work but cannot get caught standing around management does not have work organized properly

Disorganized, micro managers,  daily lies from management, expectations by management of production are beyond reality, weekly speeches by management that totally destroy any existing morale, turnover rate is outrageous, i could go on but you get the point.  On day one I was told their order of importance is : quantity, safety, quality(your safety should never come second to their profits!!!). Basically if you hate yourself is the only way i would suggest working for this employer.
