Pros

BASF is truly progressive and interested in finding and implementing sustainable solutions for many urgent global issues. The company is interested in hiring the brightest and most driven employees who are going to continue to work to improve themselves and the company.

Cons

Employees must be willing to learn new things and change positions (possibly moving to new locations) in order to grow. There is a strong push to promote from within, but a particular position is unlikely to change in title as in the traditional sense of "getting a promotion."

Pros

BASF provides it's employees with benefits to a level I have not seen in other organizations. The 401k match is better than I have ever seen, vacation time is better than the national average, flexible work from home schedules are available in many positions and the general atmosphere among other employees is positive

Cons

It is a large company so it can take a long time to get some things done in the organization. Some positions require a lot of travel, so it can be difficult for people with families, but the job descriptions are usually accurate when it comes to specified travel.
