Review from Operations Dept
37 years in executive branch
Company is beurocratic and presents a false front to the world. Behind the scenes the focus is on profitability and shareholder return before caring about their wirkforce. Sustainability is a buzzword they exploit.
They honestly make sure you are taken care of the environment is clean and safe and you're treated like family
