LyondellBasell reviews

The site I work at is very unconcerned with safety. They expect you to get your daily rounds completed while piling on 12 hours worth of work. They shoot themselves in the foot by trying to maximize production by “patching” maintenance issues and reasons why the unit goes down. Upper management makes very quick and irresponsible decisions to get the unit back up running as quickly as possible, even when they know the issue will arise again even a few days, sometimes hours later. They also seem to not care about following procedures on how to go about doing things, and expect you to cut corners to be able to get them done as fast as possible. The worst part of this site is the training. It is set up to where the other outside operators on your shift train you instead of having a dedicated training position. This is counter productive because it puts an extra load on the operator training the other employee because they are expected to work their job as well as train the new hire on the job lower than them. Also, when you train from an outside guy, you will only learn how to do the job how they were taught how to do it, even if it may not be the correct way. It would benefit them to have a dedicated trainer that way everyone gets the same exact training and do things the same way. On top of all this you are supposed to train within 3 months but they give you two weeks and expect you to be able to work the job alone and pass the test.

Most of the jobs require you to work at a plant.
