      After the Vote One Year, Out Without Gallogly, In with Bob

      Operations technician
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The people I work with period. Gallogly pulled his ripcord, we are in a honeymoon with Mr. Bob Patel. After the Union Vote things are slowly changing. Upper Management is now engaged with the hourly folks. They need to keep it up, the people closet to the pipes make this company, not just Operations but **IEA, **MACH and Daylight Personnel at the site (TEAMWORK). The Management at the plant is engaged. Working together we will make this right and even the Pro Union guys are getting onboard.

      Cons

      At this time they are starting to getting back to basics not treating as us as commodity.

      Great Company

      Pros

      Lyondell is a great company to work for. The company has large projects and expansions going on everywhere, which is very exciting. You have unlimited opportunities and the compensation package is excellent. The 9/80 schedule for people working in the plants is a huge benefit as well. Yes, the hours are long, and management has it's flaws, but that is true of most places in this industry. Personally I have had fantastic managers in my time with the company, and I've always felt like the compensation package more than covers the work hours. There is a lot of responsibility at Lyondell, so if you are considering a job here, keep that in mind. I enjoy the level of responsibility, however, and have found that there is never a dull moment working in the plants!

      Cons

      The rotation program for developing engineers is terrible, and in many cases it drives your career in the polar opposite direction of where you'd like it to go instead of helping to shape it. Also, they need to bring the 9/80 schedule to the downtown corporate office in Houston. Losing that benefit when moving from the plant into a corporate role is a huge downside!
