Pros

Dow pays well, but just well enough to make it difficult to leave for more pay and not enough to not want more pay

Cons

If you have a good leader and good sponsor you will have a great upwardly mobile career at Dow, but otherwise you can expect to be stuck where you are indefinitely.

Pros

People: This company is full of very smart, very motivated people. You won't have any trouble fitting in if you're eager to get going. Slugs might want to look elsewhere. Culture: Fantastic, helpful, supportive, and non toxic. Leaders lead from the front, including the CEO, who was raised up in Dow like almost all of the senior staff. Basically, if someone is in that position it's because they know what they are doing. Also worth noting that work life balance is great at Dow, including for on site plant personnel. Training: there is a class for everything and you'll be assigned a mentor who's job it is to ensure you actually develop (you're not alone and it's not sink or swim). Pay and benefits: good pay, good benefits, and very flexible leave schedules. Technology: Dow is a materials science powerhouse that contracts out very little of the actual work. They have more than enough cool stuff to sink your teeth into, be it automation, chemical/process engineering, materials science, etc.

Cons

Salary is less than comparable privately owned chem majors. BUT BEWARE: those companies have much more toxic/strenuous work environments and longer hours.
