Pros

Friendly teammates and staff. Management always cooks out. Hardest part is standing 12hr shifts. Rotating shifts with 3 1/2 on and 3 1/2 off

Cons

Management always adds new job duties. Wants Excessive, irrelevant paperwork done. Lack of safety program and incentive programs. Fair share of whiny teammates

Pros

There are none, there is nothing good to say about this place, i dont think head quarters know how bad it is, if they did, they would make immediate chances.

Cons

Horribly managed. Unorganized, unsafe, understaffed, allot of over time, as much as you can handle.
