      Declining benefits give employees more reason to look for jobs elsewhere.

      Process technician

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Large, well known company. Working with a diverse workforce.

      Cons

      Bad decision making by managers. Benefits are not inline with other companies of this size in our region. When pension was frozen/ended, only a certain group (10 yrs service, XX yrs or older) received any makeup in the new retirement plan (5% for 5 years). This sent a bad message to employees who may have had the years of service but were a little younger than required by the plan.
