Why Work Here?

For Electrician roles, if someone goes permanent, they will have the opportunity to enroll in an apprentice program. The cost of the program will initially be paid out of pocket by the employee (deducted from their weekly paycheck). After 4 years, when they receive their Journeyman card and successfully complete the program, the cost of schooling will be reimbursed. There is also an opportunity to go into the field once permanent and receive per diem on projects/travel. Electricians will work at the same manufacturing facility every day with minimal weekends required, providing a nice change from the construction life. Additionally, there is significant growth expected this year with the construction of a new building onsite, offering ample growth opportunities as promotion from within is highly valued.
