Worst job ever. 55-60 hours a week.
Way undertrained. Too many obligations.
Only 20$ an hour to work on plumbing, electrical, and dangerous chemicals. I Have seen 8 people quit in my first 5 months. On call 24 hours a day.

Pros
Excellent benefits, including comprehensive health care.
The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.
Cons
Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance.
Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm.
Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
