Just curious if anyone ever worked there or knows anyone that has. Watched a special about it in my organizational behavior class today and all I can say is wow. I don't know how anyone could do it with all of the practices they had. Putting production leaps and bounds ahead of safety. 9 deaths in about 10 years and countless other incidents resulting in amputations and life long scars.

I just thought it was attrocious the conditions they had to work in and there is no way in hell I could have withstood it.

About a 45 minute video but it has a lot of interesting facts

I know several who work for me now that have worked there. Got some pretty ugly stories to tell.
