      Pros

      Alcoa has great benefits. You will learn how to work quickly and prioritize. You will meet alot of very smart people with alot of great ideas that they are afraid to share. Alcoa values their minority employees and takes that kind of diversity very seriously.

      Cons

      Alcoa is a very old, conservative company that values people who stay there a long time and not necessarily the people who do a great job. Innovation and new ideas are discouraged in favor of ABS dogma and the way we've done it for 100 years. What you accomplish will never be as important as who likes you. They are very suspicous of people recruited in from other companies and their ideas are marginalized.

      Pros

      Ability to work 100% remote.

      Cons

      ITAS OTC Manager has no clue how to manage, encourage development, or plan growth. He was too busy trying to keep his skills up and not actually cultivate newcomers and manage well. I felt alone and not supported by my manager. The environment is not great for newcomers to the company. The team supposedly has so much work, but was able to lay me off after returning to work from health event. Complete and utter joke. They do not honor their core values. Beware of this place.
