Business Outlook

Pros

No one cares much anymore. So, if you’re someone who wants a paycheck only, this is the place for you.

Cons

Those who have worked here for over 3+ years stay there for a paycheck. No passion for the work anymore. Don’t expect the pump supervisors, leads or VSM (Value Stream Manager) to care about the work conditions too.
