      Unemployment is a more positive experience than working at CE. Don't leave your current position to come here!!

      Pros

      Most worker bees are good, friendly, helpful people that are good to be around. Mark Rohr is changing the culture, but many mid level managers (and a couple of VP's) still have to go before he can be completely successful.

      Cons

      Only a select few are given the opportunity to advance their careers at Celanese. The vast majority are viewed as expendable. Middle management team are primarily a bunch of ruthless, cutthroat, inept, clueless individuals that are only truely interested in advancing their own careers. Given they have little accountablitity this makes for a scary combination for the common employee.

      Celanese is a great place to work if you are aggressive. If you are not then it is not a good place to work.

      Pros

      Level organization creates many opportunities for growth. Excellent access to top management. Good company vision. Depending on your position poised for growth

      Cons

      Level organization creates few openings for promotion Flat organization creates a single point of review for performance. You live or die by an individual performance review
