Pros

Great co-workers. Highly safety conscious at every level of the company. Once you learn the job, you can only get better due to limits of what must be learned and/or understood. Company has more SOPs than most. Clear future career path.

Cons

Accidents and "exposure" will happen regardless how safe you try to be...inevitable. Hazardous work exposing you to known and unknown chemical compounds, which may affect your health in the present or future. Majority of the jobs do not go according to paperwork mainly due to third party "middlemen" vendors, who put the bare minimum or no effort in on their end of the work. Surprise work on Saturdays starting before 6:00am. Work/life balance is not good. If you want a decent check, you work for overtime.

Pros

Good exposure to a large, complex organization with cross-functional collaboration. Opportunities to take on responsibility and learn quickly if you are proactive. Some strong internal frameworks and experienced individuals to learn from. Visibility across different teams and business units.

Cons

Lack of standardized processes creates unnecessary inefficiencies and rework. Too much reliance on individual knowledge instead of scalable systems. Cross-team communication is often reactive rather than coordinated, which slows execution. Roles and ownership are frequently unclear, leading to misalignment and finger-pointing. Tools exist but are not fully implemented or consistently used, resulting in avoidable manual work.
