    Does anyone here work for them? If so what can you tell me about your experience? They're aggressively hiring and are offering me a job that I am very seriously considering. Any information about them would help. Thank you

    Never heard of them.
    If it has anything to do with
    Frac sand and oilfield don't bother.
    You'll just be looking for another job
    In a couple more months.

    Get it while you can. Fracking and oil fields are going bye bye. Democrats will see to that.

    Their powers are limited. Texas and North Dakota were booming under Obama.

    You'll have to travel to Midland, TX at your own expense. They will put you up in a man camp during the week of orientation which takes place at a hotel. Transportation between the man camp and the hotel is on you. I recommend renting a car for the week if you fly in so you're not spending a fortune on Ubers. After a week of orientation with rude, condensending instructors you'll get assigned to a "mentor". Yes, drivers with years of experience and even drivers with years of oilfield experience are assigned to "mentors" like they're new CDL school grads. Of course your continued employment is entirely dependent upon that "mentor" signature. He doesn't need any reason what so ever not to sign off on you so you better kiss his butt and stay on his good side. If he doesn't sign off on you then his word is everything and any objections you have will fall on deaf ears. You will be fired immediately and ineligible for rehire. In that event you will get to travel home at your own expense having wasted alot of time and money for nothing. The "mentor" is rude and on a power trip. He will let you know that your job depends upon his signature and that you had better shut up and do as he says irregardless of company policy. He will also let you know that his word is what matters not yours. He might only have had a CDL for a couple of years. You may have been driving truck as long as he's been alive. That doesn't matter!! Welcome to the oilfield.

    Yeah right, just like how they were supposedly going to impose sharia law too.
