Pros
good pay, good benefits and a wealth of knowledge to learn.
Cons
UNION is no good, lots of lazy backstabbers. the union protects the non workers. no matter how much experience you have or how hard your work, you will be first to go in a layoff and the same lazy folks are still there. If you work hard they will ride you till you give up then move to the next person. management does care about your abilities or actual experience or your safety. they wait till some one is hurt or killed before they do anything. i know because i was there in the 96 explosion that was easily preventable. this company has been sold many time and each time they say their is going to be a change and nothing happens. the keep the same crooked management they had. lower managements give your jobs to contractors for under the table payment. upper management does not listen. your a number not a benefit to the company. It is not a safe place to work, if you take pride in your skills and knowledge do not work there you will be brain dead and have a horrible outlook on going to work. I wasn't laid off or fired, i quit after many years. to much lies and backstabbing going on
