Pros

Very professional environment with a dedication to succeeding in a responsible manner. The company's performance through the recent supply glut speaks for itself.

Cons

Cyclical imbalances of work life balance. Periods of long hours occur near tight deadlines. Structure of organization does serve as a barrier between levels of management.

Great work environment and people. Very fast paced, you will be challenged to perform on day one. Competitive pay and benefits. Frequent opportunities to advance.

Cons

High turnover in leadership positions. Lack of focus on immediate goals. Difficult to transition to a site with represented work force if you have not been exposed to that environment.
