Pros

Challenging work supporting the Production Dept keeping the plant running even thought every new improvement over the last several years was poorly engineered and presents more of a bottleneck when completed than an improvement.

Cons

The kings think their clothes are beautiful. They have no in house engineering or controls engineers to to provide improvements or updates for the plant. They almost never update their plant or process drawings after the initial purchase of equipment. What they have called engineering is only project management of capital projects with engineering being accomplished by the vendor only. There is no seasoned engineering staff, nothing but a bunch of trainees. Management here blames the Union for its problems but its the Union workers that have been keeping this place going in spite of the poor management.
