Pros

They,re start pay is great. 90 day $1 raise Good benefits Very strict point

Cons

Mandatory OT No sick time Very strict point system Favoritism You’re supervisor controls your success above even HR No training They will bully you They will sabotage you to get out of there Incorrect attendance tracking system. System shows no call no shows for no reason They only give you the raise if they like you… well if the supervisor likes you. Overturn rate is extremely high so be prepared to work… You get sent home expected about 4-5 days within a 3 month span, consider that… They lie in orientation… The 8 points doesn’t really exist you get 5.5 and you’re basically fired…

Pros

Talented and hardworking electricians, operators, mechanics, and plant personnel. Interesting automation and controls work with opportunities to solve challenging technical problems. Significant autonomy at the local level when responding to production issues. Good compensation and benefits. Corporate engineering resources are knowledgeable and generally willing to help.

Cons

Expectations and priorities frequently changed without corresponding adjustments to workload. Performance feedback lacked important operational context, such as competing priorities, project reassignment, and resource constraints. Communication tended to favor frequent meetings over clear written expectations. Accommodation requests and communication support were difficult to navigate and lacked a clear process. Single-engineer staffing model creates a challenging environment for vacations, medical appointments, training, and long-term sustainability. Heavy emphasis on immediate deliverables can make long-term engineering work and root-cause analysis difficult.
