Previous reviews were warnings I ignored - Anonymous employee ES3 Minerals Employee Review

Difficult but achievable quotas for anyone willing to check their ego at the door and learn. This isn't a scripted sales call, it's a very thoughtful and low pressure approach, which I like. I had to shed some bad habits to get good at the way ES3 wants us to be of service to the mineral owners. Very rewarding when you get there! Never saw a leadership group (all the way up to CEO) be more engaged and invested in everyone's success great team, great people, great culture. Ability to make OTE and THEN some

Not everyone can get there, and sometimes it's not a great fit. I've seen some really try but not make it. Also seen some go through the motions or lead with their ego - neither of those will be successful here,

The work schedule at ES3 Minerals is great for work-life balance, with hours typically running from 9 AM to around 5 PM. There’s also the potential to earn well if you can successfully convince mineral owners to sell. However, it’s important to know that ES3 Minerals acts as a middleman, buying at below-market rates to resell to larger buyers.

The CEO tends to centralize all decision-making, even though the company is structured more like a corporate environment, with limited open communication. Employees are often expected to only engage with their direct managers, who then relay information to the other teams and the CEO for final approval. About 18 months ago, the company underwent a major shift in direction, driven by some consultants who knew nothing about the mineral business. Since then, there has been significant staff turnover, including the entire mineral acquisition team and the entire executive team, The new manager in charge of the mineral acquisition team has never bought mineral rights or even worked in oil and gas, which leads to challenges, as he doesn't fully understand the business. It can be difficult to trust the stability of the business when the CEO frequently changes policies on a whim, including rolling out new non-compete contracts, with little notice or options for employees other than to accept them and sign new documents or quit and walk away.
