      Pros

      1. Good compensation, benefits and relocation package 2. Opportunity to work with many long-tenured Alcoans with very strong knowledge/specialization within the industry. 3. Strong focus on values and EHS culture. 4. Appropriate level of management support for work/life balance.

      Cons

      1. Lack of training and development opportunities 2. Limited and not very well defined career paths within certain functions. 3. Senior leadership strips mid-level and site leadership of any true ability to run their businesses during "leaner" times. 4. Performance culture is weak - not enough accountability for poor performers.

      Pros

      Ability to work 100% remote.

      Cons

      ITAS OTC Manager has no clue how to manage, encourage development, or plan growth. He was too busy trying to keep his skills up and not actually cultivate newcomers and manage well. I felt alone and not supported by my manager. The environment is not great for newcomers to the company. The team supposedly has so much work, but was able to lay me off after returning to work from health event. Complete and utter joke. They do not honor their core values. Beware of this place.
