Business outlook
Pros
Alcoa provides reasonable compensation, very good work/life balance and a solid IT structure. Things such as PPE and appropriate tools are also provided to accommodate the needs of the worker, and Alcoa is generous in replacing any PPE as-needed.
Cons
Alcoa is highly focused on safety. So much so, in fact, that it can almost seem unreasonable. A reflection of the liability-driven society we face today.
