Pros

Since Xylem has taken over the company in 2017, the repairs and upgrades are fantastic. They pay and the insurance benefits are good. Friendly coworkers that are eager to help if needed.

Cons

Favoritism with boss/employee relationships is the biggest issue. Union dues are taken out of your paycheck once a month for a union ran by a very corrupted union President. Older employees get incentives on doing extra parts. New employees, on new contract, work just as hard but get no incentive.

Pros

Good pay, unlimited PTO, and the occasional free lunch when leadership is in town. There are also volunteer activities available if you want to get involved.

Cons

Only 12 paid holidays, and Veterans Day and MLK Day aren’t included. Expectations shift constantly, creating rework, wasted effort, and frequent overtime that leads to burnout. The environment is highly political, with a small group gatekeeping information, unclear ownership, and perception often outweighing results. The business is volatile, with heavy, frequent restructures and ongoing headcount cuts. Technology and systems are outdated, processes aren’t documented, and training/onboarding is weak. The culture leans toward a boys’ club, and it’s easy to feel sidelined or disrespected—so you’ll need a thick skin. Decisions are driven by short‑term goals, and the future often feels uncertain.
