Pros
Co-workers, supervisors, managers, and a few directors are lovely to work with. A great place to get industry experience, and decent pay for the area. The work we do and the what were involved in is cool.
Cons
High turn over within GMP Downstream caused by a shift to a new schedule that we did not have the trained operators to handle, despite expressing these concerns to supervisors and managers. We lost the most experienced operators to the expansion of other departments, and now none of us are really properly trained. A training room was created to help with this, but that's laughable at best and not a solution to our problems. The workload is unrealistic and the amount of times we've been expected to stay well past our shift is outrageous. There is no work/life balance at Aldevron. You live to work, not work to live. Almost every person in leadership who actually listened to us, fought for us, and seemed to care are now gone.
