Pros

Short commute if you live in the Woodlands or surrounding areas; one of the few companies around that still offers a pension package; well capitalized and financially strong as compared to its peers, poised to be a major player in the chemcial business given its international investments; aging middle and senior leadership team means better opportunities as soon as this group begins to retire

Cons

Very lean (sometimes cheap) when it comes to employee perks, limited career opportunities since no employee movement to the larger parent companies; not the best at clearing out the dead weight

A good place to work

Pros

There is still a defined pension plan and a 401K plan. Has financial backing from Chevron and ConocoPhillips. We have received merit programs annually, even when company wasn't having a good year. It's a small enough place that you can know a many of the people in a department.

Cons

It does not pay as well as the oil companies. Too small to provide very many job opportunities. There's not very many international opportunities outside the middle-east. The petro-chemical market is very cyclical and seems to have more bad years than good years.

Pros

Very good opportunity to interact with management. There was very good company culture, employees were expected to be productive but the work environment wasn't extremely driven. CPChem has a very good mentoring program and they attempt to accomodate their employees career goals. Most employees are satisfied with their company experience. Management provided useful feedback through employment.

Cons

The compensation was good but not quite as much as comperable positions in the petroleum industry. If you're looking for a huge company, go somewhere else. Most of the management team is familiar with the management at the other sites. Not all seasoned employees were thrilled to work with new hires but most were helpful.
