First off they pay every two weeks. The good thing about working at Tindall is that you usually have weekends off at the MS division.. Tindall is a great place to work but the people who manage the place make Tindall a bad environment to be in. You have bed leaders who talk crazy to whom they can and you have supervisors who don’t care about how tired you are they just want concrete poured everyday. They want you on time everyday but could care less what time you get off. They do not care about your personal life and problems. They will tell you to bring an excuse for days you’ve missed but want acknowledge the excuse because they’re still going to mark you down as being I excused at work. Every race works with there kind but in a rare case you do have folks of different color working in a branch of upper management. They let certain people get away with murder because of there skin color and time they’ve put into the job. They don’t fire supervisor or any other branch of management unless they make a mistake that can not be fixed with talking. They took the vending machines out only to put food in there that’s expensive and too high to afford. They literally sell ham sandwiches for 7 bucks so you can only imagine how much everything is. A single hot pocket is almost 3 bucks a bag of chips is 2 dollars and yes I’m talking about the small bags that’s usually 2 for a dollar. They don’t give you a raise until they feel like you’ve earned it and you could bust your butt everyday.. all of this is happening at the MS division

I worked here as a production worker for about 2 years. We tied steel and poured cement. All work was done under a giant roof so we worked even when it rained. Be on time and don’t miss work or you’ll get fired fast. You may not be able to move up to a lead man or superintendent though, these guys have been there for 10+ years and I don’t think they’re leaving their posts up for grabs. The starting pay for steel tying labor is $18 everywhere else, not sure why precast places start off $12-14/hr. Here you will get started at $14 and some change and get bumped to $15 after your 90 days. With the things I learned here at Tindall I was able to leave and find a better paying job. PTO, 10 vacation days after your 90 days available immediately, 401k that matches up to 6%, vision, dental, health insurance, etc... the benefits are the only thing none of the companies I interviewed for could match. It’s a good place if you plan to stay a very long time. 

Tindall has been known to be a benevolent organization through family ownership since the 1960's. Through periods of national economic downturn, Tindall has shared the sacrifices it has asked of employees and known to employees like family. A surprisingly large number of Tindall employees have invested most of their career at Tindall, boasting major service milestones.   

Some of those in key roles, with many years invested, are unfortunately, inflexible and not adaptable to the necessary changes in methods, technology and workforce trends.  They are digging their heels in and hurting the company.  

While Tindall has tried to cultivate a coaching culture, it has not been effective developing the now "untouchable", long serving employees.  Even young employees in leadership roles and not held accountable to performance standards.  New talent with new ideas are suffering under the dated manufacturing philosophies.

When I arrive at work I start my day by inspecting my truck to ensure traveling safely to job sites on busy interstate roads. I turn in any paperwork from previous jobs from the day before and pick up my paperwork for my load for that day. 
I have learned the Texas laws for transporting oversized loads including the State oversized paperwork.
 I feel that management does not stick to the guarantees of the hiring contracts and does not communicate with drivers in reguards to their work day.
I have meet many different people within the company and several of them have informed me that they feel the same way about the management. 
The hardest part of the job is not knowing weather i will be working everyday.
The thing I enjoy the most about working at Tindall is complexity of the job.

All in all one of the best companies and people I've had the pleasure to work with in my commercial construction Career.
Great steady work and thorough training.
Great pay and benefits after 90 days.
Co-workers quality, smart,and solid people in the top of their field.
Management are A class, and go above and beyond to take care of any kind of issues out on the road and make sure everyone is as prepared as absolutely possible to get the job done in the field.

- Managing precast operations for multiple projects.
Project Managers and engineering staff are great to work for and very helpful at getting a job completed.  
Field management is dysfunctional.  Poor planning and a lot of knee jerk reactions to field issues.  You may be on one project and asked to go cover another without any special instructions as to scope, special requirements, field contacts, outstanding repairs, or drawings.
Overall my experience was good and the best part of the job was the fast paced environment, project management, engineering staff, and watching structures come together.

My typical day at work is to ensure the flat beds have the proper steel count, and exact measurements of re-bar or welded plates so they are able to complete their task. I learned how to cut re-bar using a shear machine. The management team always try and find ways to improve the company's productivity. The hardest part of the day for me, is after my 50 minute lunch break. The most enjoyable part of my job is, I help contribute in making parking garage decks, highway bridges, and strip malls depending on the contracts we have received.
