Pros

The people you work with are good people. Very great experience with many transferable skills to learn in such a short time.

Cons

Although your coworkers are good people, some of the "lifers" only want "more of the same". They could have had great increases in production if they would try some new ideas. The alumina/aluminum commodity market in USA is shot.
