They promised 100+ jobs at $120K+ a year salaried.
What they actually came up with was 13 jobs at $56K a year.
For this, they're getting a $47M tax break. If you want to know why Louisiana is consistently one of the most poorly educated and poorly funded states in the country, it's situations like this. The locals end up subsidizing out of state businesses who get sweetheart deals with local politicians in exchange for favors.
Instead of a business paying their share, all that money is instead transferred to the already-rich owners and investors (and yes, the corrupt officials in the local state).
It’s a prisoners-dilemma style arrangement for the benefit of the already rich and powerful. If it’s not Louisiana, they’ll find some other suckers to bribe.

This presumes someone else would be paying the $47M. Often that isn't the case, so the "tax break" is just money the locality would not have received anyway.
But their voters are an order of magnitude dumber
