Pros

Good pay and benefits due to our Union Contract. Great safety manager. Company really cares about safety.

Cons

Terrible upper management. HR is out of touch with the work force. Procurement will not order parts in a timely manner. Ex: I ordered priority 1 parts at the beginning of April. Found a local supplier with the parts in stock. Customer was without air. May 1st, I was told to reorder parts due to someone losing my purchase request. Parts finally came in July 10. This is unacceptable and makes me personally look bad to my customers.

Pros

Hard to say any if at all. I get a paycheck (that took months to be paid correctly)

Cons

No wage increase despite others making way over SCA limits, no adjustments for cost of living, same people recognized for doing bare minimum, insurance premiums are insane, no allowance for unpaid leave, PM totally unaware of what even happens on the contract, no one in upper management takes accountability for mistakes and contractors are blamed, many inadequate hires made just to have a warm body
