Pros

The upper management of the Environmental Group are great motivators and take interest in each of their employees. In my case, upper management was extremely flexible in where I worked. It is a great company to gain experience in the environmental field and learn it right from intelligent people.

Cons

With the upcoming split, people have not been replaced within the Environmental departments in the event that any of them leave. It places a larger workload on the people still with Alcoa, which can lead to high work load and work life balance stress.

Pros

Ability to work 100% remote.

Cons

ITAS OTC Manager has no clue how to manage, encourage development, or plan growth. He was too busy trying to keep his skills up and not actually cultivate newcomers and manage well. I felt alone and not supported by my manager. The environment is not great for newcomers to the company. The team supposedly has so much work, but was able to lay me off after returning to work from health event. Complete and utter joke. They do not honor their core values. Beware of this place.
