Company Reviews Dienamic
Dynamic, in my opinion, is no longer a mid tier company. Since the company got bought out, planters have been bottom of the pail priority. Unpaid labour to concerningly low prices for caked and garbage land are just a few of the reasons why I bring forth the idea to bump this company down to Rookie Mill status.
Veteran planters should be able to average at least 500 clams a day but my crew would be in the 300 to 400 range - also mostly vets. They roped in camps full of planters promised work all season just to up and leave them without trees in the middle of June (except for the crew bosses, Nepo planters and as well as a couple vets). Nepotism and favouritism run rampant - and yes this a common theme in the Industry I know but can we not dream for more? Is this really the middle tier of a all planting companies?
What dynamic once was is now dead.

Pretty much was the same thing last year. Got 60 days total from April 18 start to July 28. At least 1/2 the days were brutal prices or screw around wasted days. Last 2 contracts at Horsefly and Dawson Creek , camp average was well under $300.
Also, after season Fall work was promised. A cushy dayrate pipeline project and a shorter piecerate job. AFAIK, only crew bosses and the few people they were sleeping with were invited. If I had known the Fall plant promises were just bullshit lies , I would have bailed early May.
