Pros

Low stress for the most part . Unfortunately maintenance usually revolves around patch jobs as there are rarely any parts which can be stressful when situation calls. People here are generally positive , however there is big union politics , but just mind your business and do your best and it's a good place to work. Overtime is good

Cons

Very outdated system. Still heavily rely on paperwork submissions , only just transitioning to digital . Management can be disorganized and not have an idea of the issues facing the lines . We still rely on a paging system for maintenance calls and no work orders which makes very hard to track historical issues and we also never have parts in stock .

Pros

Great people, strong brands, and a lot of ownership. I’ve had opportunities to manage large spend portfolios, lead cross-functional projects, and work with teams across Supply Chain, Finance, Quality, and R&D. The company invests in development and provides exposure to senior leadership that can help accelerate your career.

Cons

Performance and rewards don’t always feel aligned. High performers can sometimes feel underappreciated, and career advancement can be slower than expected due to organizational complexity and internal politics. Decision-making can also take longer than it should because of the number of stakeholders involved.
