Pros

They pay pretty well, decent medical benefits and 401k match, Union employer depending on which plant you work for.

Cons

Mandatory Overtime, Upper management protects supervisors who bully employees, medical claims aren’t handled correctly - they will close out your claim while you are still injured and tell you that you are “fine”. Dodgy incident investigations where they will pin unmaintained equipment failures on employees even though it’s because the company wouldn’t shell out the cash to fix the equipment properly instead of putting a bandaid on it.

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.
