Overtime is excessive

Pros

Excellent benefits, yearly bonuses based on shop performance metrics, Cross training opportunities, time and a half overtime and double time on Sundays.

Cons

Expect to work 3000+ hrs per year. Senior management uneducated and not supportive of shop floor personnel. Man-hour management is non existant. Many shifts and departments running under staffed with little time off during outage season.

Pros

Steady job.. and you can keep fairly regular hours.

Cons

Hostile work environment. Management micro manages and focuses on "relationships over results". Basically this means that if you do a good work but someone who has a better 'relationship' with your boss says you don't, you're in for an uphill battle. I personally found ALSTOM in Bellevue to e one of those most hostile work environments I had ever been in. People don't even say good morning to you in the halls or make eye contact with you.
