Pros

Green Hydrogen story is easy to sell

Cons

Most toxic top leadership: takes credit for success, blames everyone else Top management loves group thinking, push back on their bad decisions is considered treason Leaders want to micromanage, but they are too lazy to get into the details Deals are accepted with huge losses, they think free money will keep coming

Pros

Decent pay for some roles. New technology, potential for growth and further expansion and product lines.

Cons

Terrible company culture. Multiple members of senior management were essentially 'bought and paid for' by one individual in Management and many came from the same company that starts with an S. The company has a referral bonus that this one manager exploited and hired multiple of his cronies into various management positions, including Human Resources. This company only values relationships and not work ethic. Nepotism and favoritism run rampant here... It wouldn't surprise me at all if quid-pro-quo goes on here...Because this is so blatant, morale is terrible among the staff and people feel overworked and underpaid. Numerous people have given up working hard and trying and have openly talked about how the company will not promote them because they are not management's favorites. -so why should they try if they won't get promoted?... Management has openly talked about who they like and don't like in front of employees like we're still in a High School setting, and many members are extremely unprofessional. There is also a lot of bullying that goes on here that is sponsored by management that HR does little to nothing about. There's a lot of racism and discrimination at various levels that go on here. The majority of my team and multiple other people within the building openly talk about how they're looking for better opportunities, quote: "where they don't feel like paid slaves". The work-life balance here is horrible. I've witnessed many things that I never thought would happen at a workplace, including people working in altered states of mind and operating heavy equipment and machinery. This has honestly been the worst experience I've had in my career and cannot wait for my opportunity to get out of here, aside from quitting and unfortunately, it's getting closer and closer to that reality. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. Thank god for them getting help from the government with bailouts because they continuously find ways to run this business straight into the ground.
