Rain for Rent Employer Reviews

Its a easy job. Nothing about this company is hard. The only bad part about is that managers wont let your overtime go overboard. So they started cutting hours and sending people home after staying in shop painting bolts blue for 8 hours. Work is getting slow. Left company after hours were being cut from 80's to just over 40 hours.

Rain for Rent is very hands on. I worked at the corporate office and traveled all over the US to job sites, branches, and conventions. Everyday was different and challenging. You learn the business from all angles. You apply what you learned in college from day one. The pay was also very competitive.

HOWEVER, there is little direction from management. – more... You are on your own buddy. This can be good if your a go getter and aren't afraid to take the bull by the horns. But be ready for brimstone and fire if you slip up, upper management will do this for amusement and public display.

Work life balance sucks, location sucks, no frills here. Go to work go home, repeat.

Start here if your fresh out of school or looking to learn. – less

There biggest problem is management. you never know whats going on,when your out of town you never know when you get to come home

Very sour place to work would be nice to if management were different. Wouldn't recommend this job to any mechanic if they wanted to do any mechanical work.

We would get to work get job assignment and do them without any stress from foreman or any other bosses.

Tough place to work. You never feel safe there because there is so much turnover.

Typical 9 to 5 office job.
Raises and promotions are given to "friends" of upper management, not all employees have the same opportunities for advancement.
Upper management is extremely aggressive and politically biased.
Seniority is not rewarded.
Men are paid more than women.
Training is available to some for advancement, but not all, and the usual – more... reason to deny training to certain people is "budget constraints"; I saw this happen repeatedly. – less

I totally loved this job and my co workers. Unfortunately due to the ecenomy decline and housing market/construction decline I was laid off :(

co workers were very fun to work with, and managment was good up until they were replaced. days could be hard when you had to repare equipment or set up jobs. i enjoyed working on pumps and fixing things aroundthe shop.

great place to work. new and exciting field .....great hours

lots of different languages here i enjoyed this place wish i still worked here

Rain for Rent, as a corporation, is amazing. They have fantastic family values, seem to genuinely care about their employees, and provide every ounce of training for any position you could ever need or desire.

Their field employees do have to work long hours, but the compensation is more than worth it in care, concern, and wages. This corporation pays – more... very well, has fantatic benefits and can offer a fantastic career. – less

As a Lead Installer for Rain For Rent, I was usually teamed up with a crew. We would engineer and plumb frac tank and mud farms for Shell and Encana for Production and the Drilling Exploration in Wyoming.
Rain for Rent is a Leader in Pump, Tank and Filtration. It was enjoyable to work for the Company. We would would built, and disassemble tank farms – more... and irrigation systems.
I only worked one Winter in Wyoming for them, which was cold
One night, on pump watch was the hardest I had. It was Minus degree weather and the pump was having problems, as the new Dodge I was driving, Trying to keep warm that night and everything running, while being wet.
The most Enjoyable was working with Great Management and Awesome Team of Guys. The work was always enjoyable and challenging. – less

Installed pumps for frac jobs. Not a very good company. Supervisors didnt take the time to teach new employees the correct way of doing the job.

From day one it was an unorganized, negative environment. It is a 'sink or swim' company for non-management employees. Management gets training, but then is 'thrown' into his or her duties. Every dept has complaints, my department was the worst. My co-workers wer ok, but the management is run by young professionals not yet seasoned to perform true management – more... duties.
The most enjoyable part of my job was the few friendships I created. – less

The most enjoyable part of the job is all the contacts and relationships I have developed over the past 12 years in the industrial markets.

good outdoor exposure
fun to work with heavy equipment

I relocated from Mobile, AL to Florida. This was an incredible job with great staff.
