    My Husband has worked @ Holiday rock for 4yrs, good pay, long hours. Your start time is different everyday, you check your schedule everyday after 5pm or 6pm you can start at 4am 5:15am 6am it’s different everyday just depends on the job.

    I started with Holliday Rock back in 1998, at about 10 dollars/hour. If you can handle the erratic schedule it is a great company to work for. They take care of their employees and that is rare today. Good luck to them and thanks for the career.

    Good job to get into, your going to have bad days and good days just like any other job. I retired in 2018 with over 40 years driving a mixer and loved the job. I'm going to be 68 this year and I'm still driving mixer in the summer for something to do. I just can't get away from concrete, LOL...Wishing you the best of luck on your new career !!!

      Cons would be during the rainy season. The work load drops considerably. Below 40 hours a week. Hands will get Grimy and dried out easily. Wear a mask. Otherwise you may breathe in the concrete powder, not so great for the health. Besides that. It's good company
