Pros

The money was okay. The benefits were just okay. Lots of air circulation in a warm shop.

Cons

A certain minority race sticks together and they discriminate against other coworkers based on race, age and experience level. Management backs them up and they both retaliate against you and make you feel threatened and fearful of losing your job. It actually takes very little to be fired from this place. If you become a target you'll probably get fired and they won't even give you a reason. Management can never consistently fix payroll issues. There's always days that aren't paid and then it can 2 or 3 weeks to fix these issues. If you show signs of distress in any way it's viewed by management as not a good fit for the company. Who wants that kind of problem on top of being discriminated against based on your race, age and experience level? It was a total nightmare working here. Not a fair working environment at all. The union isn't supposed to help anybody until they get their 90 days of probation over. This doesn't seem to help the current issues that seem to be very overlooked issues currently at this time. What a complete mess Solar Turbines at Harbor Drive is.
