What is the best part of working at the company?
I liked the challenges that came from a wide variety of job tasks. The attention to safe work practices was taken seriously. Meeting new people, constantly evaluating and instructing new crew members. Most jobs had a family feel, in that we looked out for each other.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part, was job access accommodation, and site specific requirements. The time and effort to make sure you are in complete compliance, was sometimes a long process.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment consistently changed depending on the location and management involved. The culture was like a brotherhood.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
We would have a site meeting, followed by a company meeting. I would inspect job locations for changed and hazards. Then we would have a crew meeting, this included analysis, safety mitigation, and permitted assignments. Next, tools would be inspected, fab area set up, and material gathering and low inventory addressed. New inventory would be stocked at this time. Travel to work area, evaluating conditions, plan work, perform work. Stopping for scheduled breaks and lunch or a change in working environment. Following lunch any mid-day  issues were addressed with management. Work would continue until twenty minutes before knock off time. This gave time for area cleaning, pro-duction paperwork, permit closeout, fab area cleanup, travel, and end of day notifications.

What is the best part of working at the company?
For me it was to be in a very family type environment and feel that the higher-ups are not unreacheable type of people. It was to be able to express my thoughts not only in a person basis with your leader but through the existing mechanism implemented in the company, such as the yearly surveys.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I could say it was the long hours, but in my case I always managed to discuss some flexibility and managers were open to it. But be in the road, moving from project to project, having to learn new sytems processes on the run was always somewhat stressful. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Excelent, as I mentioned in the beggining. Very friendly environment. The opportunities are there, it is all up to you.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
6 AM to 6 PM, walking down the units, discussing tasks of the day with your team and keeping yourself informed with progress so far, cheking all the design information needed for the few day ahead (at least), keep to your plan and eys in the schedule and suden changes. Be ready to answer questions to workers and client.

A typical day with triad started out with a company saftey meeting going over various saftey topics.I would then proceed to a number of toolbox meeting and find out where and how many employee's were going to be at what location and there job duties for that day.Then i would proceed to each job to audit each JSA through out my section of the job site. I was also responsible that every crew was responsible for enviromental safe work practices and clean up prcedures. After lunch we proceed to fill out three client audits everyday.In the evenings we made sure that all foremans had there area clean and orderly.also make sure all flameables are placed in a flammable cabinet.

It's all family and friends. If they are coming to the job, all else is laid off. This was the worst company me and about 100 other people ever worked for. Never will work there again. Treated electricians like trash as everyone got a raise except the electricians. Pathetic. Porta jon stalls were horribly maintained, material was never ordered to work with yet job conpletion was highly expected and no,matter how much experience you have, if my buddy wants to be a forman he comes before you. Don't even spark up race. There are no ethnic groups in any of the offices and out of 25 foreman only three to five are Latino, Black, or other.

What is the best part of working at the company?
They will keep you working. As long as you are on time, do your job, FOLLOW ALL SAFETY RULES, and have a good attitude, sky's the limit! 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Just like every other construction job, they seem to be 3 weeks behind on getting started, so it's kind of stressful. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
All hands stated at the bottom. So they know where you're coming from. Great environment for hard workers, not so much for lazy people. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Do your job, feel accomplished, go home at end of day, repeat.

My work day is very productive and challenging which I love.  I'm all about learning new things to better my self for my career.  The company I work for is a great Company I have been with them for almost 9 years, the only reason of me seeking another job is I would like more stability. Just looking to get out of construction world. To be honest there is no hardest part. I love what I do I have became a Foreman recently which I over look 15 plus men daily. The most enjoyable part of the job is the company, the people and the daily work, I do NOT  have no big complaints. Like I have said previously I just want stability for my self and my family.

You'll meet some good people here. YOU WILL SWEAT, but that's a factor of the environment you're working in.

Office politics will ruin you if you aren't paying attention, especially if you're a member of the "Travel Team". You will need to quickly identify the pecking order unless you want to be railroaded out of the company, which makes it an unfriendly job if you're neurodivergent, as I suspect I am.

Overall, Triad takes fantastic care of their people, but a terrible job of choosing who those people are.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Varis depending on the plant. There pretty good at keeping sites clean.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Stressful. Sometimes you can catch a good job where you like the people you work for. Fore the most part get used to the (buddy buddy) system cause thats what they are!

When I arrive to work, my first job is to get the work permits for the daily job task. I learn how to analyze my work and my work area to safely and efficiently get the job done. I do not agree with the way Triad's supervisors manage the job. They also do not manage the material kept on the job site well which causes less production. There is no communication at my current job. The environment at my work place is great between employees. The hardest part of my job is dealing with poor management. The most enjoyable part of my job is getting recognized for my production.
