Pros

Good benefits, 401K and work environment. Room for some advancement if you're a motivated employee. Not as bad to drive to compared to plants in Pasadena area.

Cons

Small unit without many options of advancement. Dependent on old BP unit for utilities and some feeds. Not much support in house for management or engineering.
