KAEFER Integrated Services Ltd.

This is a company that is only focused on achieving results and will do anything, including manipulating product costs, cutting corners, and delay processing invoices and receipt of goods to keep their financials looking reasonable.  When the final tally of the job is in, every one except the CFO and CEO  gets blamed for the poor results.  

The employee turnover rate is through the roof.  just look at how many business development, estimators, project managers and vp's have been let go over the past 4 years.  Well over 100% turnover per year.  

The moral of the staff is terrible, the culture is not fun and the pay is below market.

what i loved about my job was that i was contsantly learning something new everyday especially working in the mechanical rooms i loved challenging myself and i also took pride in my work ive learned how to duct wrap pipes insulate pipes wire pipes canvass pipe did cut outs for valves and bolts pvc pipes and elbows i worked with fiber glass insulation i didnt mind it everyday i was learning and i want to continue to learn the best i love looking at my work and taking pride in it and i also like constructive criticism i am a fast learner ive put so much hours into this i want to keep going further so far i have 756 hours from my ROE. I worked on 3 different commercial job sites ive thought of going industrial to further my skills and knowledge.

This is a company that is ripe with corporate politics, deception, out ward misrepresentation of facts and has not been profitable for many years. The CEO and CFO will do anything to protect themselves, and easily re-direct any blame for their own incompetence to the employees. The moral and motivation of the staff are so low, well just look at the turn over in all levels. The CEO runs around like his hair is on fire and the CFO has built his own little empire and defends the incompetency. This is not a nice place to work or to do business with.

A terrible place to work.  The culture is so negative, so belittling, and so disappointing.  Your colleagues are unhappy as they are constantly being berated by management.  All the workers are blamed for the failure of management and management is blatantly mean, unfair and takes advantage of everyone, including the workers and customers.  Don't believe me, just look at the turnover.  The incompetence of management has set new low and their ideas have already been tried and failed.  Stay away from this dishonest place to work.

Kaefer problems came from the top. Some new and incredibly competent managers were brought on board in 2015.The sleaze at the top remained. Now that the rotten wood has been thrown out, the new management team has an opportunity to fix things. The problem is that the new management doesn't want to take responsibility. There should be a reckoning on the safety statistics the estimators provided to the customers. Employees need to be shown that management is going to work from a clean slate. All of the squishy dealings should be put to rest, not kicked down the road.

Worked there a long time nothing changes always pipe to insulate with zero reward.  Management terrible, jobs are terrible, no incentive, no safety program, massive quit rate seen guys work a day and quit many times, no room for advancement but you really don't want to advance because of the management, but always work I guess

They only look a month ahead never long term.  Its quite sad really could be an amazing company but it's lack of vision and lean program will be the end of it

Terrible Place to work. Terrible place to do business with.  

If you look in the dictionary for dishonesty, deceit, unscrupulous or two-faced, you should find a reference for Kaefer.  

They are unfair and mean to their employees and treat their customers even worse.  

You are reading this because you need a job, but you can do much better somewhere else.  Don't even consider an offer, because the management, especially the finance department, can not be trusted.

If your a good worker you will have no issues with not having the work.The people that work here are great to work with and can be fun at times.
Safety is taken seriously and there is no room for error.
materials can be challenging at times but for most part it eventually arrives.
Usually this is Camp Life Style job with charter services paid for but as for any other travel and bonuses,your on your own.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The pay was good , and the work schedule was perfect 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
It was on a 2 weeks one week off rotation 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Fast pace and interesting. Good safety and quality policy 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Fast pace and learning new things

Tight work areas with lots of workers in the same areas when there's a push trying to meet the deadlines. The head safety guy would put the company first trying to avoid wcb if something happens to you on the job almost like if work injuries were under a certain level per how workers there are he would get a bonus. Either than that accommodations where good. Educational
