Job Offer - Oiler - Entry Level Millwright - Petrochemical

[geoff_tropheus]

$17 per hour, 40 hours a week, working in Petrochemical Plant here in Pasadena.

11500 Bay Area Blvd
Pasadena, TX

Work Hours
7:00 am to 3:30 PM

The job will have some overtime, and as you gain experience some call-out may occur.

The job is for a Entry-Level Millwright position in the plant, where you take readings on equipment, monitor equipment, change oil in the equipment, and clean up oil spills and what not.  The job is about 75% outside, 25% inside wearing Nomex clothing hardhats, safety glasses, steel toe shoes, ear plugs, etc...

It is hardwork, and hot. You must be atleast 18 years old.

The work has little to no benefits as it is for a thirdparty contractor. Medical is not good, and has to work for 2 years to get vacation.  So...its not the best job, but it is entry level, and will be around $20 an hour after 18 months with merit raises based upon performance.

Please PM me if your interested.

Thanks,

Geoff

You get the same holidays off about 10 days, but it is no pay on them until after 6 months.

You do not get any additional time off until 2 years service.  You get 10 days.

Like I said, its entry level, hardwork, hot, dirty, sweaty work, that only certain people would make it.

It is $17 an hour, and probably averages 10-15 hours overtime a month.  Top pay on that posistion is $24 an hour.  After 3-5 years you will upgrade to millwright position, where that wage top offs at $34 an hour.  From that spot is millwright supervisior which tops off at $45-50 an hour.

Most people start off as an oiler, then millwright, then go and get out of maintenance and go work construction or turnarounds where they earn a higher wage plus per-diem.  Per-diem runs as high as $100-120 per day, and hourly rate as high as $80 an hour for regular millwright work.

So, even though it is on the entry level of things,  it can quickly become a springboard to bigger and better things within about 5 years.
