Pros

Great healthcare benefits, fun place to work, schedule flexibility, (with the right manager). Pay is competitive with market rates. Paid time off is one of the best in the area.

Cons

Very unfair advancement opportunities. If you do not have or have not established a personal relationship with a member of management or executive team, do not expect to be advanced. These opportunities are only granted to friends and family while management forces its employees to believe it is their sole responsibility to map out their career. However, it has been proven time and time again: An employees career path is well established prior to the employees presenting their career desires.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
