Refinery Terminal Fire Company Reviews

Administration side is outdated with the exception of the IT department. IT is top notch, but not utilized as well as it could be. Communication lacks within the HR, Comptroller, Operations and IT departments as there are rarely meetings within the four. It is more closed door meetings about solutions to problems between two departments rather than open door meetings with all four departments to come up with solutions before the problems arise. The power for IT to automate many functionalities is there but is not wanted. There is favoritism and if you do what your told without giving advice (unless asked), you’re fine. EVERYTHING is still done with paper and much is wasted. This is another area in which IT could step in. I can compare the environment to walking on eggshells. When I was released, it was a huge weight off of my shoulders. They are VERY strict on time and clocking in and if you are one minute late, you must write a late memo to administration for record keeping. It was very intimidating to write those memos for just being one minute late. It could be from walking from the door to the time clock and be on a forth tardy of only one minute. If you are one minute late, you can be fired. Never alter your timesheet no matter how intimidating being one minute late is. Altering a timesheet for two minutes can get you fired no matter if the memos are intimidating.

Management is deplorable. They only think about themselves and no appreciation for your good work. They give themselves huge bonuses annually but nothing to the rest of the employees.
