Pros

Steady job over the years. Overtime is generally available to work and isn’t mandatory. Great benefits (so far) with “Cadillac “ insurance for Union employees.

Cons

Rotating 12 hour shifts for new employees isn’t fun. No pay for skills. Company could contribute to 401k (match).

Advice to Management

HR- Management needs paid better so we’re not replacing them every few years. The Union workforce shouldn’t have to train management.

  1. Project Manager Interview

    Anonymous Employee in Newburgh, IN

    Negative Experience
    Average Interview
    Application

    I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kaiser Aluminum (Newburgh, IN)

    Interview

    Nice recruiter. Had a Teams call with two guys and never heard from them again. Left two voice mails with the recruiter and received no response. It’s been 4 months. I am a senior level technical expert and project manager, and to be treated like I was by Kaiser was extremely insulting. I would recommend people with dignity read my review and ask yourself what company treats candidates like this.
    Interview

    Can you work with people since you are highly experienced with Teams (idiotic question only an idiot would ask)?
