Pros

The company had good working conditions and I was paid a good salary with bonuses. There was occasional travel interstate and abroad.

Cons

Medical tests during recruitment was a horrible experience that I hope never to repeat. Upper management could be unreasonable and demanding, and were quick to criticize but unwilling to praise for good results.

Pros

Flexible hours, good pay, work with minimal oversight

Cons

Focus on DEI, promoting women and minorities rather than based on Merit. Rate of turnover in management so high that many managers have little understanding of the explosive/chemical business fundamentals. Consistently restructure every 2-3 years often laying off experienced employees.
