Great company, great benefits, great work environment, working for any department is good EXCLUDING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY.

Cons

IT - Management Heavy, 1 - 2 employees to Management, 2 Directors in IT with no one reporting to them, Unfair promotions. Covanta IT Management lack the necessary skills to promote for give the company any real directions about new technology. Also known fact that most if not all of the plants lack any respect for the IT department.

Pros

The shift supervisor role consists of busy days with a lot of varying priorities. You are responsible for emissions regulation, work permits, specialized permits, managing changing plant conditions, and administrative personnel requirements. This can be a high-octane role but has a more relaxed period on night shift and when outages aren't occurring (planned shutdowns for maintenance). Expect to drive plant performance and employee development. Many opportunities for professional and personal development if you put the time in.

Cons

The plant culture will play a huge role in your quality of life, since most of your time will be at the plant. This can be good or bad. Quite a few managers do not engage or develop personnel due to various qualities. You will have to do the leg work in fostering a change for personnel development.
