Pros
Coworkers and people who actually work
Cons
The union brings everything down and everyone with them to keep the status quo, reward senior members and prevent progress. They can be frequently seen sleeping or watching movies from their trucks. They have no pride in work they are hired to do and frequently change the rules in their favor. Management is at a snails pace and stalled with posting or even filling positions and continually want more for less. People are overworked, overwhelmed and wiped out. Watching the union get paid to do nothing with no repercussions is demoralizing for salaried folks. There is no end in site with P66 direction to sell non core assets and squeeze every penny out of the refineries and their employees over the course of 2024. 9/80s are not respected and WFH is a luxury afforded only if your on site support isn’t needed. Callouts are frequent even if you are not on call.
