Vortex Companies, LLC

Young company driven off of high energy that is prioritizing growing in the right ways. No none day is the same here, very much like a startup company, which sometimes creates confusion but that is less of a company issue and more of a personnel issue. The Company continually invests in great people and works to put them in the best positions to succeed. There are multiple examples of employees joining the company in one position or department and finding themselves in a different position within the company further down the line. This promotes diversity amongst the workforce and gives employees a unique opportunity to learn across different departments. Commitment is key with this Company, but once that is established it is incredible how much that commitment is reciprocated whether it be through continued education, additional training/certifications and other areas centered around professional development. The one misconception here is that feedback is not encouraged and would fall on deaf ears. The Company has an open door policy which in my opinion, is underutilized.

To have a job that positively affects the company’s growth is a dream come true for me.  It’s a research-intensive job that I enjoy, especially since I’m on business trips most of the time.  But I would have to say our Texas headquarters is pretty impressive (just across Hilton).

Hauled heavy equipment : loaders, excavators, skid steers backhoes, rollers, other construction equipment. Aggregate materials, parts and supplies. Paid every week 40-44hrs with overtime. Was not micromanaged. Supported small to medium  size construction crews. Received daily instructions more or less getting things from point a to point b in a safe and timely manner. Pretrip and post trip vehicles. Automatics and manuals. Hardwork, high expectations, good benefits and pay. Only reason for leaving was to advance my career on the equipment operation side of the construction industry.
