I began the interview process with a third party, but it was clear that they were on the same team (more on this later). The opportunity was for a "Production Manager" role at the 3V Sigma Georgetown facility. I had my phone interview with a gentleman who introduced himself as HR. It was a good interview, but it took an odd turn when he asked for my salary expectations. I told him what I was looking for, and he immediately started to low ball me and pitch me the idea that due to the "beautiful weather and location" it was justified. At the time I figured I could still negotiate, so I continued. I did some research into the company and found out there was someone who died in a botched confined space rescue, and there have been fires & explosions at the facility. My second interview was through Skype. I never got a calendar invite and I was worried that it wasn't going to happen, but I eventually got a call from the Plant Manager. During the call he said the position was for an "Assistant Unit Manager" role. The Manager said that this role would transition into a Production Manager role depending on performance. Overall he was professional and knowledgeable. When I asked about the death and explosions, he was open, but he was discussing the death of ANOTHER person that I didn't come across that happened just a year ago. It just so happened, that I would be back filling the position of the deceased. The Manager provided his new solutions to prevent another death from happening, but I felt like he didn't tell me the whole story surrounding the incident. He indicated the next round would be site tour and he offered a "virtual tour" to move as fast as possible. Within a couple of days I got a call from HR. I asked about the role change from "Production Manager" to "Assistant Unit Manager". He got VERY defensive when I brought that up said that "it pays the same so it doesn't matter". He immediately tried low balling me again and pitching the "great weather" meme and tried getting me on a plane ASAP. I told him I was interested, but I had projects I had to finish first before meeting them. The next day I got a call from the original recruiter and I told her my experience. She immediately started with the "good weather" sales pitch and was defending HR. I told her that if I was going to work for a place that has a safety reputation, I need to at least be compensated at fair market value (their range was well below). She then pivoted to the "money doesn't matter, good people matter" sales pitch. A couple of weeks later I contacted their HR and said I was interested in visiting the site, but in order for me to go there, I needed higher compensation, because they have been the lowest paying group I've talked to (> 20 companies). He said that my minimum range was their maximum range it was best to move on. I agreed. Their "HR" and recruiter tried using high pressure sales techniques in order to low ball me. The multiple deaths and hazards were not brought up, until I mentioned them. Be very careful.
