Good place to work overall, but sometimes nepotism can rear its ugly head

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Challenging, cutting-edge work, great benefits, good pay, and the opportunity to advance if one works hard at setting and completing goals

Cons

Union stranglehold over hourly workforce leaves those who aren't on board with the union's political agenda feel misrepresented. Instances of nepotism are a little too frequent, with unqualified individuals securing jobs over qualified people, simply because of family relations or "knowing a guy that knows a guy".
