Pros

The job is not stressful at all, and the people are very nice and helpful. Management is very open to new ideas and safety is clearly there number 1 priority. Pay and benefits are good.

Cons

The schedule is anybody's guess at the beginning of the week, it all depends on how well the plant is running. If it runs too well they cut your hours and lose out on any overtime. If it doesn't run well then you get your overtime but you may have to work 7 days to get it. I didn't find out we were working Saturday until Friday at 3 PM. So be prepared for your schedule to be a complete guessing game.

Pros

Talented and hardworking electricians, operators, mechanics, and plant personnel. Interesting automation and controls work with opportunities to solve challenging technical problems. Significant autonomy at the local level when responding to production issues. Good compensation and benefits. Corporate engineering resources are knowledgeable and generally willing to help.

Cons

Expectations and priorities frequently changed without corresponding adjustments to workload. Performance feedback lacked important operational context, such as competing priorities, project reassignment, and resource constraints. Communication tended to favor frequent meetings over clear written expectations. Accommodation requests and communication support were difficult to navigate and lacked a clear process. Single-engineer staffing model creates a challenging environment for vacations, medical appointments, training, and long-term sustainability. Heavy emphasis on immediate deliverables can make long-term engineering work and root-cause analysis difficult.
