Good pay and benefits, but 6 bosses for every actual worker heckeling you while you are trying to do your job. These people complain everyday about how much the workers are paid! The salaried bosses were in the way, and often carried laptop computer which they used to re programm the software based machinery to malfunction!

great safety culture
Technician (Current Employee), Millicent – April 25, 2013
Pros: short distance to work
Cons: shift work
a typical day is 8 hours long
we work a 5 shift rotating roster
plant operates 24/7
management seems to be a bit top heavy
close bond with workmates because of the shift work
hardest part would be doing night shift
most enjoyable part is the great safety culture
