Pros

I am truly enjoying my new position and collogues. They are open to teach, eager to learn, and willing to adopt new processes.

Cons

The role came with limited to none documentation related to responsibilities. All training was reliant on previous BM who had transferred to another plant. Her willingness to help with the transition has been mixed; on one hand, her knowledge of the role and nuances from 21 years experience is invaluable. On the other hand, she has controlled the flow of knowledge and training and might be holding back in some areas that should be handed over.

Knowledgeable and experienced managing team. Excellent Training Program. Very good archive and documentation system. Helpful services. Everyone is trying to help each other. Excellent orientation training and program. Fabolous vision of how to care about human resources. Friendly environment (Good friends are better than family members) better than a family business. Effective result and effort are appreciated.

Effective results and effort are appreciated. Safety and health programs, plans, and procedures are comprehensive. They managed properly. PPEs are available and well-seen for the existing hazards. Work and life balance is more than expected for power operation jobs.
