Pros

Stable Job, co-workers have been here for 30+ years. I learn something new everyday. Everyone is knowledgeable and helpful. The company has great values to promote safety!

Cons

I feel like compared to twenty or so years ago, the company has slowly deteriorated, due to the loss of many knowledgeable staff members and huge layoffs. The pay is somewhat on the lower-end, and I feel overworked/burnt out. Employees have to remain flexible to keep up with the growing list of changes. Additionally, the onboarding training process is lacking.

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
