Pros

Global, burgeoning industries in power both renewable and ICE.

Cons

Way too much time, energy and resources applied in focusing on woke idealogies and making ESG scores. Meritocracy sacrificed for Technocracy. Heavy emphasis towards separation / class structure between hourly and salary personnel. Union vs. non-union staffing in many facilities furthers this mindset. You are either one of two types-shop or managerial; determined by whether you possess a 4 year degree or not. Extremely non-progressive for such an otherwise HEAVY "progressive" culture. Engineering is a round peg that gets forced into a square hole when it comes to the class structure separation of shop vs. salary.

Pros

You get paid for doing OT on weekends at the plant I work at now If you are in a shift that has less staffing you might earn more money on weekends as you will not have anyone to rotate with or less people to rotate with I am happy to have a manager who understands I have a lot of work pressure

Cons

If you are in a shift that has less staffing you will have a lot of work to do. For me the con is lots of work pressure in the shift I work. I think I do the work of atleast 2 people and sometimes even more. First shift will have people to rotate on weekends. Unfortunately 2nd shift doesn't have people to rotate with. We end up working every weekend but have same number of vacation days. People in 2nd can get there vacation days used up before other shifts. But still I would say its a good company considering I work in a manufacturing facility.
