Pros

Provides the opportunity of a good life-work balance (in Europe at least)

Cons

Extremely hierarchical company, senior management change their minds every time (lack of consistency), poor communication from the management, lack of good leaders, people in wrong positions, general unpleasant atmosphere. If you come to work for Clariant be ready to do what you have to do and go home. If you want to contribute, be active, have the chance to learn and grow, participate in the decisions, this is not the company for you.

Pros

Nothing that would make to choose Clariant over other company

Cons

Since last year Clariant became a company who not handle situations very well. They sold a part of the company, which resulted in a lot of dismiss. Okay, That is normal in the business. What is not fine is the way they did all. The company looked like a jungle where everyone was "fighting" for survival. After the storm, we faced a lot of changes inside the company, structure and a new Head of Global Business Services. This person brought his ideas without asking anyone's opinion. He wants number, we have to give him number and it does not matter how it is going to impact in our work lives. We look like a call center company now, and I am pretty sure that it is going to impact all our costumers. I have no more pleasure in being part of Clariant. All that I want it is an opportunity to quit.
