      Pros

      The pay is excellent although you have to work long hours for it. If you are under 40 its a great place to start your career but don't stay over 5 years. Company is solid financially.

      Cons

      Older employees are not valued. Younger employees are brought in and senior operators are demoted back to entry level jobs to make room for them. Standards are very different from site to site and even from unit to unit within the same site. Creates an atmosphere of unequal treatment of employees. Excessive favoritism leading to unqualified people in leadership positions at 1st line level.

      Pros

      Good pay and good coworkers. Relaxed atmosphere. My job is challenging and interesting. My direct supervisor is supportive and enjoyable to work for.

      Cons

      Upper management cares only for THEIR bottom line. As long as they are getting their raises, bonuses and incentives, the company is on track. And cutting in to everyone else's pay to do it suits them just fine. It is a "if you don't like it, go somewhere else" attitude.

      Pros

      High paced, competitive market that will lead you to great success if goals are met. Very lucrative bonus structure, again if goals are met.

      Cons

      High paced, competitive market. The petrochemical space is a growing one, especially in the Gulf Coast area. Labor continues to be a struggle for all the expanding markets in the area.
