Poor management

Process operator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay and insurance benefits

Cons

Revolving door - no employee retention. Almost always shorthanded, so tons of overtime. The ones that are the most knowledgeable in an area are fired, then others are belittled until they also leave. You’re also required to donate a good chunk of your pay to the United way or you get a poor evaluation.
