Benefits, Days off per week

Very unsafe environment. Fires and many chemical spills. Also an exessive amount of walking due to bad layout. Lack of proper training and compensation for people who's jobs if done wrong, could lead to disaster

Pros

Days off. 3 to four day weekends are really nice. Great team atmosphere and very friendly co-workers. pay is ok and there are opportunitys for additional overtime.

Cons

Management is obsessed with quantity. At the same time, mistakes, especially when they cause scrap, are all managers seem to notice. They seem to see all the mistakes but nothing that you do right.

Pros

Low Key - people aren't in your face Lots of opportunities (They're really "broken")

Cons

"Wack a Mole" Work on something and then get moved to something else No value from original work cause you didn't get to finish it. No accountability from too many re-org's which hide management problems Cheap on long term facility decisions Spend $300M on the site and don't get the o-ring for the garden hose. These dumb decisions only hurt the long term operation of facility
