      Pros

      There are a lot of good people to work with who are good at their job and willing to be helpful to others. The plant has new equipment in some areas and improvements to the work areas. The shops are clean and mostly organized.

      Cons

      Some employees are not treated fairly. Job opportunities are sometimes not opened up to all the employees. People are selected and put in positions. Management shows favorites. This effects trust in the management there.

      Pros

      Good people, fairly stable place to work. Used to have a lot more pros

      Cons

      Very dependent on oil prices, so now with low oil prices, they are cutting cost. This has come at the expense of healthcare (much more expensive now with poorer care), bonuses, raises, and every minor perk that we have previously been given. They seem to be trying to lean out so much that they haven't noticed that a majority of employees are actively trying to leave. Politics are overwhelming, you need to kiss the right butts to make it anywhere.
