The-Townsend-Corporation

I've worked for this company for more than a decade and I can't imagine working anywhere else. My team is my family. It's wonderful to work with colleagues that are invested in helping you be the best version of yourself. I've received a treasure trove of professional development support, training and encouragement. 

Typically, I jump out of bed and am excited to come into work. There is always a new project or problem that needs solving. 

I can't say enough about my manager. He is a coach, cheerleader, advocate and mentor. It doesn't matter what time it is or what problem I have. He's always willing to stop what he is doing to help. Great leaders lead from the front and I have the the privilege of working for a great leader. 

The culture is pretty relaxed and there is no formal dress code. We have a lot of social opportunities here and we have a fantastic team of associates that all get that there is a person on the other end of the line when they call. 

The hardest part of the job is turning it off. This is more a reflection of my personality than a reflection of the company. I love what I do and am rewarded well for doing what I love. 

The most exciting and rewarding part of my job is coaching my staff. I have a great team of problem solvers who are dedicated and work hard to improve every day. 

Absolutely no employee development. There is no training structure to anything that they do. You will be thrown into a job and expect to perform at a high rate within weeks with no training or really anyone to lean on for help. No breaks! You will get a 30 minute lunch for the day but that's it. They even frown on a quick cigarette break throughout the day. It may be different in the field working, but in the shop/office it is definitely not worth your time! Don't make the same mistake I did. 

I absolutely love working for Townsend. I am a long term employee and plan to retire from here one day. There is no place else I'd rather be. I love the atmosphere and all of my co-workers and they do care about us, we're all like family. Great management and leadership. If you're looking for a great company and career long term this is a great place to be!

Long days that never stopped. Hostile work environments. You definitely need thick skin to work in this field. Expect to have never done enough. Job advancement all boils down to who you know. You get to see a bunch of stuff that a typical person does not. You get to be a hero sometimes. Expect to get injured and witness near-death experiences.

Townsend is a fair employer, the general foreman was respectful and responsive, good guy to work for. 
They could work on getting their employees their bonuses on time. 
Overall experience with Townsend was pretty good. 
I enjoy working in the construction field and being able to work outdoors.

The company is a family owned business with the family heavily involved with the running of the company. We stay very busy but have lots of support from our management and our teams. I have grown my career here over the last 11 years and  I do not see myself every wanting to leave this company. 
They put safety and people first.

Privately owned business stuck in the age of paper files, no work/life balance, and the expectation that each employee will perform the work of 2 or more people. Lots of favoritism if you know the founding family or HR Director. 

very prejudice work environment, not very professional, home office not vey accountable. I was not paid on time on several different occasions, where I had to wait up to a month to get due paychecks

What is the best part of working at the company?
If you put in the effort to learn the skills necessary to be a decent climber/bucket operator then you’ll get paid pretty good.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Having management micro manage your jobsite and everything you do. You work outside but you get no room to breathe.

The Townsend Corp. is one of the best places I have ever worked.   You are appreciated for your hard work and dedication.    The benefits and perks are some of the best around.   I am very thankful for being given the opportunity to work for The Townsend Corporation.
