Manager of capital projects - Project Engineer Delek US Employee Review

Very fun crew with great energy

Days can be long every now and then

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

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.
