Pros

Having worked for Dow Chemical in the European headquarter with more than 500 people from 50 different countries, I gained valuable experience interacting with colleagues and customers from varied and diverse cultures. The openess and exchange among the employees was inspiring and most rewarding.

Cons

I noticed a changing trend to concentrate more on business results and neglecting people who are achieving the results.

Employee value is well understood in Dow. A very friendly HR company. Roles can be interchanged from one department to other. This leads to multi-discipline learning and knowledge acquisition.

Should see that policies are also friendly towards extra curricular activites
