Pros

The job posed great pay, great experience in a refinery setting, and workers who were both bright, goal-oriented, and very friendly.

Cons

Struggles with bureaucracy were shown time and time again in the workplace. Also, operators were not as nice as other manufacturing plants. No cafeteria, poor workout facilities, and old building.

Pros

Is a very people oriented environment, most co-workers are friendly and easy to work with. Compensation and benefits are very good as compared to similar companies. Also not impossible to movie up the ladder if employee improves with time.

Cons

Like all places, many things can become political. People will always talk. At times job can become too repetitive and boring.
