First time in many years that Valero didn't make that list.
Maybe it has to do with closing plants and cutting a whole bunch of jobs.
I used to work for them years ago, I didn't think it was one of the best companies to work for when I quit.
They tended to use salaried employees like dogs, work em until they were burned out.
The year I left I had worked over 3500 hours all for straight salary with no comp time, no thank you. It was part of the job.
I asked my manager one time if the supervisors were ever going to get the 4x10 schedule. ha said: "why should I give you 4 tens when I already get you for 6 twelves for the same price?"
I don't put much stock into that report.
BTW I walked out on a Monday morning.
I was on my way home about a mile from my house when my cell phone rang, it was someone I knew from the industry. He said he heard I quit, I said yep. He asked what I was going to do, I said I don't know yet. Maybe retire.
He said they are looking for a superintendent to run their So Cal service center, I said I'd be there in the morning.
I got another call that night from another refinery offering me a job better than the one I walked away from.
Being able to walk away from what most consider a great job knowing another will pop up is called freedom
