Wyoming Machinery Company

If you excel at your job and want to advance in this company, good luck. Management will hinder any growth within the company to keep you "stuck" in your position. The lazier you are or if you mess up often you have a better chance to reach management then your co worker who works hard and rarely messes up. If you get into the "good ol boy" club you will reach management, whether or not you are qualified. They have a company handbook and policies in place, but rarely follow what is written. 

If you have any previous experience don't offer any knowledge as that is frowned upon. They want people oblivious to standard operating procedures, that way they can tell you how they want things done even if its dangerous or completely wrong. 

It could be a good place to work at if new management was in place. Management that knows what they are doing and realize that if they treat their employees with respect verse treating them as expendable the company would see an increase in production and morale. But, nothing will change because its a buddy system.

Would not recommend working at this company. Horrible work environment where the management truly does not care about it's people or for that fact the company. Management loves to play games and pit their workers against each...and think its funny! Safety at wyoming machinery is a joke as well...they preach about it but when it comes to it at the job it goes right out the window, seen quite a few injuries while i was there. They only care about keeping their friends working. Even when these people actually make them lose clients and work. About the only good thing I can say is they have good health benefits.  They are just floating on the CAT name and have lost all their talented workers (especially in the mining division).  There are all these mines in the powder river basin and none of them like to use them anymore if that tells you anything. They are the most expensive to call out and their quality of work is horrible. In short ....dont go to work here, it is not what it use to be!

I have been in the workforce for 10 years now. I have worked in large cities, small towns, international locations, kitchens, and wash bays. I have worked for great companies with bad managers, bad companies with great managers, those that micromanage and those that do not manage enough. I finally feel like I have landed in a good spot where employees are looked at as people rather than just a number. The family values that started this company remain to fill each corner of the shop and front offices.

My leadership team is great, and I've witnessed the same in multiple departments. They are always encouraging staff to grow with the company, find what you love within this building and use the help offered to get to where you want to go. I feel like leadership is just as much part of the culture as anything else. It really is one of the best places to work in this state. Happy to be a part of the team!

For anyone looking for a career rather than a job, do your best to join this team. 

I spent 6 years working for them at one of the mine contract sites.It did not take o notice the fact that management are not the ones in charge. There are certain individuals throughout the company who reach the level of untouchable. And these people are the ones running the company. And should you confront one of these people with they're lack of knowledge about your job which they have been unofficially been out in charge of. They will run to management and you end up labeled as not being a team player. While there  certain individuals may not be in charge of you or anyone else technically how you deal with these individuals will have a huge impact on your career. And management will promise you the moon and stars and then find a million excuses why they couldn't make it work out for you. The time off is the only perk to working for this company.

Working at this company has been nothing but positivity. I thoroughly enjoy going to work. Management is fantastic, I couldn't ask for a better supervisor and ladder up. There are all sorts of in-house advancements/movements, so you're not stuck doing the same job if you want to move up/around. Safety is number one here, which is reassuring. The benefits and pay are fantastic as well. I love working for a company that excels in their productivity and customer service, it makes you proud as an employee to hear people talking so highly. I'd say my favorite part about working for Wyoming Machinery is all of the friendliness of the staff. There's never a time you walk past a coworker and they don't greet you and/or ask you about your weekend/day. Hands down- a forever career.

As a veteran managing PTSD, I requested a simple workplace accommodation: to have my desk positioned so I could see the doorway. Unfortunately, after bringing this up multiple times, my request was not addressed, and when I eventually adjusted the desk myself, I was let go shortly afterward.

While many of my colleagues across departments were great to work with, I found the leadership within the IT department to be lacking in both technical experience and empathy. Support for staff well-being and fair treatment, especially concerning reasonable accommodations, was minimal. Additionally, the work environment within the IT team could sometimes be unwelcoming, particularly toward newer or younger team members.

This company offers excellent pay and benefits, however there is a culture of once you've been there about five years you are no longer required to work hard.  Management lies to employees about future prospects of shift changes, only telling you what you want to hear to get you out of their office.  There is also a major issue of double standards there.  If you are friends with the big boss then you can do whatever you want, including getting hurt at work, with zero disciplinary action.  If not, then you will be unhappy until they fire you or you quit.  

Direct management at warehouse level in Gillette has zero experience in leading a team.  Lies to employees regularly to avoid confrontation.

typical day 14 hour days 7 days a week during a scheduled outage i have learned that no job is to big or too small we have a team of experts that have  a solution for every task being performed i work with a group of coworkers that are willing to work as a team and share their knowledge as well. the hardest part are the hours per week worked not much time for yourself but it goes with the trade i enjoy traveling with the company seeing all the different states and working with a great group of people.

A day in the lab was always interesting, there were 4 full time employees and we all got along really well. Management typically didn't spend much time out of their offices and therefore didn't pay much attention to what happened in our little world. We were allowed to work through lunch if desired as long as we put in our time, it really helped when we had appointments elsewhere. 

It's a great company and it has a great work flow, but you'd think some coworkers are theater majors with their drama and hostile work environment. While I was glad I was able to get my break with this company, I was also glad to work outside the state for another company and make more money.
