Pros

The pay is good. The work isn’t hard. Decent union. Many different schedules that can be bid for.

Cons

Some areas have good ol boys club elements. You start on a rotating 12s most of the time and will be doing that for a while. Makes it difficult for a work/home balance.

Pros

They pay well, but they think that's all that matters.

Cons

Say goodbye to your family, you won't see them while you work here. Supervisors are hired based off how well they brown-nose. Engineers refuse to find actual issues and just blame operators. HR is an absolute joke and tell victims of sexual harassment to get therapy instead of firing the offender. Supervisors that ruin the departments they're in charge of are promoted. Absolute trash, completely toxic, and just plain stupid. If corporate wanted to see progress at this plant, they would fire all higher ups and get people actually qualified for the positions in here. You only get promoted or given interviews based on how long you've worked at the plant. Supervisors, managers, engineers, etc. are never held accountable as long as they blame someone else. And if you work on night crew, you aren't even considered human. 3rd shift is treated as 3rd class.
