Pros

The people are absolutely wonderful. The company has great benefits and truly seems to practice what they preach. It is a company that still feels like it has a soul.

Cons

It's an enormous and global company. Sometimes one hand doesn't know what the other one is doing and things are not communicated clearly or take eons to move forward.

Pros

Good pay Very good benefits 12 hour NON-rotating shift schedule No set schedule for breaks (take them as the process allows but still a 15min, 30min and 15min break schedule)

Cons

Very hot work( you work around steam, heat exchangers and reactors), a lot of the work is outside or very close to open roll up doors Very physically demanding Its a secure site so no phones are allowed past the security desk Security is tight so you have to be screened in through a metal detector while entering and leaving
