Pros

Vulcan is a place to work for two years and the leave when you have it on your resume. They offer great pay/benefits-but that's because no one would work for the Allens if they didn't.

Cons

Zero work/like balance. Not family friendly at all. Asked for time off 8 weeks in advance of trip, got the ok two week before I left, you will constantly be made to feel bad if you take time off. Terrible upper management, people make it to management positions by not making waves-the ones who do are usually fired or find better jobs elsewhere. HR must be getting paid a ton of money because upper mngt gives them a workplace violation story, HR "investigates" and finds out the story is untrue, HR is then afraid to report back to upper mngt and has the investigated employee give a "report". Backstabbing, incredible c.y.a, monitored emails/phone calls/texts, you're being watched at all times.
