Pros

Interesting plant, some good people

Cons

Vogon management who don't know how to operate this plant. And dishonest - I have never been instructed to lie to my fellow employees by senior management. They are very good at yelling at people but not much else. If I gave them average marks on diversity its because they treat everyone badly.
