Pros

Good pay and benefits due to our Union Contract. Great safety manager. Company really cares about safety.

Cons

Terrible upper management. HR is out of touch with the work force. Procurement will not order parts in a timely manner. Ex: I ordered priority 1 parts at the beginning of April. Found a local supplier with the parts in stock. Customer was without air. May 1st, I was told to reorder parts due to someone losing my purchase request. Parts finally came in July 10. This is unacceptable and makes me personally look bad to my customers.
