Good people - Quality Assurance Specialist TH Hill Associates Employee Review

Small company until bought out by BV

Being on call is tough work schedule

1) Generally able to set your own schedule as far as meetings and travel are concerned 2) Free coffee and water, napkins, toilet paper, bathroom access

1) The oil downturn has caused the company to take an approach that is extremely short sighted. When prices were strong and work was abundant, T H Hill was concerned with taking care of its employees. Instead of crafting a decade-long plan for success, the company has opted to make knee-jerk reactionary decisions on a monthly basis, almost as if oil prices are doomed to never recover. This began in January (layoffs), and continued into February (layoffs), April (layoffs), and now June, with a shedding of the technician hourly guarantee. Now you can come here and work for equal uncertainty for 60% of the pay. Cuts of poor employees SHOULD happen during a business downturn. Unfortunately, the obligation to care for those left in the company has slipped through the cracks. 2) Upper management does not consult with lower management prior to making the reactionary decisions listed above. 3) The pathway to upper management opportunities is limited unless you are a "yes man". 4) Pay is low for industry standards. Bonuses are arbitrary with no basis for amount given. 5) Cost for insurance is astounding at over $800 for a family.
