Pros

Team atmosphere. Specialty engineers are accessible.

Cons

Team atmosphere's days are numbered due to new "performance based" culture. Company talks a good game but does not back this up with actions. Feel like you're a character in one big Dilbert cartoon strip since being acquired by Bassell. Company does not develop its people. Pay is not competitive for industry.

Pros

Flexible Schedule: Site management shows respect for work/life balance. Technology: The company as a whole is a leader in its respective technologies. Safety: The company has a laser-like focus on safety.

Cons

Lack of diversity in management: Relatively few minorities in management and leadership positions. Communication: Employees are typically caught off guard by key changes within the company. It seems as if the sand is always shifting beneath your feet.
