Pros

Alcoa pays above average and almost all employees get bonuses. The company makes products that are used across industries and affect all of us in everyday life.

Cons

Ethical standards at this company are lax. It's every man for himself. "Leaders" give merely lip service to collaboration and buy in. Speaking your mind is not rewarded.

Pros

Ability to work 100% remote.

Cons

ITAS OTC Manager has no clue how to manage, encourage development, or plan growth. He was too busy trying to keep his skills up and not actually cultivate newcomers and manage well. I felt alone and not supported by my manager. The environment is not great for newcomers to the company. The team supposedly has so much work, but was able to lay me off after returning to work from health event. Complete and utter joke. They do not honor their core values. Beware of this place.
