Pros

Pensacola area a great place to live

Cons

Continued loss of highly qualified engineers and experienced operators in past 7 years has badly impaired safe and profitable operations. Too many unqualified managers making poor decisions and not listening to and supporting their skilled personnel in Operatons and Engineering and Maintenance..Continued history of fires will result in injuries and deaths to personnel in operating units, esp in Intermediates area.
