Good company to work for
Carpenter and Insulator and Top Fitter Helper (Former Employee), Cameron, LA – February 16, 2013
Zachry was a good company to work for. I climbed the ladder out there, and they didn't just let anyone take the reigns and run. When I wanted to move up, I was always able to speak with my supervisors and they would tell me what I needed to do to reach my goals. A person with the ability to think was respected with the areas I worked in. I learned that – more... just because you wanted something, didn't mean you were gonna get it, you had to work for it, and that to me seemed fair enough. Met good people and made life long friends and contacts through this company. – less

no safety,no tools in tool room, low pay, they push too hard.
combo pipe welder (Former Employee), florida – January 31, 2013
Pros: i saw none.
Cons: many.
They push production over safety. They pay lower than any other company. They made mistakes on my pay check twice then it took me three weeks to get it right. No breaks on ten hours. Management is disrespectful. Nothing good about them. Do not work for them.

Slow paced most of the time.
Laborer 3 (Former Employee), Coffeyville, KS – January 15, 2013
Pros: great pay
Cons: did not care about family emergencies
Great group of co- workers. But I worked 7 days a week, 10 hour shifts. Grandfather was put in hospital on life support at the time. We just found out he had stage 4 lung cancer. They would not let me take time off to be with him. I worked nights, got off work, and went straight to hospital. I went home early 3 times due to extreme fatigue, and was – more... terminated. 2 days later my grandfather passed away. – less

Dangerous-huge language barrier. DANGEROUS!! hang steel over you.
COMBO WELDER (Former Employee), WEST PALM BEACH, FL. – December 9, 2012
Cons: production over safety everyday. do not work for them!!!!!!!!
I worked for them 2 times in florida. Both times the pay was very low, there was no overtime and the safety was terrible. Everyone spoke spanish and hardly anyone spoke english. They pushed real hard for production and safety was not considered. They believe in production first and safety last. We worked 9 hour days with no breaks and a half hour lunch. – more... They made welders leave the morning safety meetings early and miss pertinent information so we could get our rods and be back before the meeting was over. We worked inside aother crews red barricade while they hung steel over our heads. Very dangerous company that does not care about their employees safety. – less

job is entirely whos on it
pipefitter (Former Employee), sll over – October 23, 2012
Pros: paid for my work
Cons: whiners
I've worked for many companies and all were about the same, union or non union. Union didn't expect as much work as non unions. Found a few quality hands to work with but not many. Zach is a good as any other company. Work, go home get paid.
