Pros

Had great support from direct management, however the new CEO went through and started cutting jobs or combining them with others which a lot of people received "packages".

Cons

ON-Call 24/7 and I had to be within 2 hours of the site at any time not on vacation. Made for some all nighters and long days if the plant was down. CBA on the plant was a single point failure which was paid for by the company, but was not good for the personnel as the superintendent still had to start up the plant.

Pros

I learned a lot from the teams I worked with over my tenure. If I was particularly interested in learning about certain parts of the business, I was often allowed to tackle those challenges. Mentors were very helpful and encouraging. I enjoyed the people I worked with and they always tried to open doors into other parts of the company I was interested in.

Cons

If you want to be doing mostly pure mechanical design work, there is less of that available at Air Products. Lots of opportunities for operations, project management, and EPC roles for mechanical engineers, and pressure vessel work from my perspective. In the initial round of placements, you get matched to one team (you can join or not) — it was not exactly my cup of tea from a day to day work perspective. Second round, I was able to join a team where I absolutely loved doing the day to day work.
