Pros

Learned some Spanish (on-the-job training is limited English) and enjoyed being called a "Mechanic"

Cons

Witnessed most of the maintenance team "running around like a headless chicken" for electrical troubleshooting and fixing problems by hitting on all electrical components. The work environment is so biased you can feel it without getting to know anyone. Training non-existent, they will hire you as Electrical Tech. to do electrical work only 10% of total time. Management will throw you under the bus, encourage you to work during "imaginary lunch breaks", ruin any personal life you joined the company with. RUN! I have never seen this much Mickey-Mouse maintenance work EVER! Quality work will not be possible here... Band-Aid/Tape is strongly recommended for tool set.

Pros

Friendly, positive environment with everyone more than willing to help when someone has questions. Rotating 12’s schedule so 14-16 days off each month.

Cons

Sitting around when machines are down can become long drawn out shifts occasionally.

4 on 4 off. Some vacation

Cons

Management, pay, care for employees. Deceitful. Italians are snotty and look down on Americans
