I worked at Vista Sand full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Paygrades are above industry average.
Cons
Different rules for different positions. The rules of the company do not apply to everyone.
Advice to Management
Treat everyone the same. Management chooses who has to follow the rules and who does not.
Application
I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Vista Sand.
Interview
HR found me on indeed, asked if I wanted to apply. After two phones screens I was asked to come in for an interview. On my first interview the manager was an hour late. The interview went well and I felt good afterwards. I got called for a second interview to meet with the IT director.
I arrive for my second interview and the hiring manager is out of town. Said he had called me to reschedule but accidentally called the wrong number. Two days later when I call back for the rescheduled interview, I'm now being told that they are not doing second round interviews yet. Needless to say I never heard back from this company.
Interview Questions
