Pros

To early to tell yet. Delek took over less than a year ago. Not so great so far but hopeful. I love my job and the people I work with.

Cons

Since Delek bought Alon out they have cut out the pension, raised the cost of Medical benefits for Salaried. The cost of Medical benefits for Salaried and hourly are different for the same plans. Hourly cost is some cases is half of what the Salaried cost is. Lack of Leadership skills from the CEO and the Corporate leadership team. They have no idea how to motivate and foster a sense of teamwork. Project Management Meetings and Loss Profit Meetings are nothing more than a beat down of how bad we perform and how we make nothing but stupid decision(insert quote). What leader talks to their team in these terms. The time to show real leadership is when things aren't going the way you want. Anyone can get people to do what you want through fear and intimidation. A real leader coaches, inspires and fosters team work to accomplish goals. A title does not equate to leadership. Leadership is a learned Trait!!!

Pros

You can get a good payout if you can tolerate the toxicity.

Cons

While the initial recruitment pitch is polished, the internal reality is a culture defined by a "run by a few, for a few" mentality. There is a palpable lack of regard for the broader team, as leadership appears primarily focused on their own career optics in a way that feels exclusionary to those doing the heavy lifting. * The "Two-Year" Trap: Top talent is often brought in under the guise of long-term opportunity, only to find an environment designed for short-term extraction. This has created a cycle of constant turnover and a "revolving door" of staff. * Health and Balance: The workload is relentless, and the lack of work-life balance quickly takes a toll on your physical and mental health. Many stay only because the "golden handcuffs" of a high salary make them feel trapped. * Management Style: There is very little genuine investment in team morale or development. Once you're in, the focus shifts entirely to output, often at the expense of the individual’s well-being. Final Verdict: Despite the strong pay and talented peers, the high turnover rate and disregard for the team make this a difficult environment to recommend for the long term.
