I applied to work for these guys, on my first day my father ended up in the hospital from a heart attack, so I didnt make in to work. They were kind enough to help me get a harness. How ever my second day for work i informed them I wouldnt be able to make it in as I needed to help my mom square away the farm and get the house ready for my fathers return after the hospital releases him from his bypass surgery. I hadnt been back at my home for 20 min when they were pounding on the door like the swat team demanding the harness back. I never got the chance to work for them and nor will I ever welcome the opportunity again.
Email sent to Tradesmen International & still haven't heard back from them. Ok-I'm confused; you told me that the Kentucky contract was going to last well over a year working 60 hours a week which prompted me to go in savings & get tools, hotel $ etc for the job then you had Chad call me over the weekend (the day before I was leaving for Kentucky) to go to Illinois. He put me in Illinois on a contract & didn't tell me that not only was there no overtime but it was a 2 week contract after I had already gotten there. Chad told me 10/04/16 that he was setting me up for Kentucky this passed Monday 10/10/16 & then the next day 10/05/16 Chad told me that the Kentucky contract was pushed back for a week, 10/17/16. Almost immediately after I took the safety video. Now you're telling me that there "We do not have open spots for Kentucky at this point, we will give you a call when weve got positions available." & "We dont have any open positions at this time" meaning Tradesmen International doesn't have any welding jobs. Chad told me the day I left the contract with Juan I was going to be starting in Kentucky on Monday. The next day he text saying it was pushed back a week, you come back & say I have no jobs so I have to ask; is this in retaliation of the videos & pics that I took there? Why was I deceived into a 2 week NO overtime job & out of a "year long, 60 hour work week welding job." Can you explain to me what I have wrong or what went wrong if this wasn't intended. I know you don't get letters like this & I probably sound like a jerk, but this is exactly what happened. I expected $12,000 by December but got a 2 week crap job instead.
Pretty decent place to work if you know what you are doing. You need to have your tools, be professional, and be competent. The best jobs are the journeyman-level travel jobs. Usually mid 20s to low 30s in pay and good per diem.
Worse place to work in my opinion. 2 years there. Not the place I would recommend to anybody.
