Pros
This company is great if you’re not in this department. Don’t be fooled by 401
Cons
They take advantage of Florida labor laws and avoid paying you overtime. In interviews don’t let them fool you. You will lose half of your overtime because they make up their own work week to avoid overtime hours. You’ll work a mandatory 7 nights in a row and get 0 overtime. There’s no shift differential. Managers don’t care about you at all. There have been system operators that have been there for over 7 years and they won’t even consider any retention incentives even if you’ve made massive improvements. They will get mad if you go above and beyond. Shift leads put you down and harass you when you try to make improvements. Additionally, 2 of the current shift leads had a couple HR cases against them each relating to sexual harassment. Instead of firing them, they promoted them to shift leads. The same shift leads are also ring leaders of illegal sports betting where they collect money from several shifts. A lot of sexism, racism goes on inside the control room especially nightshift. Director and ops manager ignores the teams and could not care less about team growth. A lot of things wrong with this department. Shift leads backstab people and gives biased feedback to ops manager to keep competition for themselves down. It’s a bunch of kids that don’t know what’s going on. Shift leads also don’t know what they’re doing and often times has to consult their best operator and take credit for it. 0 upward growth. If you want career growth you need to leave the department/control room. Qualification process is also a joke. OPS Manager is the gatekeeper for qualification and makes things up, is watching TikToks on his phone the whole time during qualifications so he misses what you say even if you have proof you said it—because of this he’ll mark you wrong and fail you. He copies pastes old qualification feedback that doesn’t apply to you. Shows a total lack of care.
