It's a DCS panel board operator.
They'll hire you in as a board operator without knowing the process and without knowing the outside job first?

DCS is basically the guy behind the computer that the board man looks at The guy who comments out the code that is there to raise alarms when shite gets outta spec, causing shite to blow up. Or so I've heard.
We basically try to tell the board man they’re an idiot, but in a nice way.

No company matches 10% 401k
6% is highest any Chemical/refinery company (and I've interviewed with a ton) matches that I've seen.

I know of one that does 1.5x up to 9%. If you put in 6% they put in 9%.

Maybe he worded it wrong and some companies do it differently, but I know of a few that don’t really do a match and just do a 5% or 10% company contribution into a 401K

Well this is false. I get 10% now. Actually I get better than 10% match. I get 6% free from the company and then an additional 4% if I contribute 6%. Occidental in Taft is similar as is Cornerstone.
As far as BASF goes and the other questions I asked, I'll find out during my interview Thursday.

Yes, there are several plants that do this. PBF, BASF, Venture Global, Koch Methanol, just to name a few. Obviously they have other experience requirements to be considered.

The 10% is likely in lieu of a "cash balance pension" option.

not true....if you are salary westlake will match 4% then give you a annual retirement bonus of 8% into the account. so essentially 12% on 4%.

You’re an idiot. The company he made this thread about matches 10% 401K.
