money/lots of overtime There is a pension, but it isnt a very good one

breathing in all the catalysts, management does not have any concern for employees, very unprofessional, safety is not a priority as much as they emphasize it(whatever is necessary to get the job done is or keeping company from getting any strikes against them is much more important than people)
