Pros

Generous pay for easy tasks. Work life balance

Cons

Lack of understanding for what our competitors and the outside world is doing. Management are waiting for years to come with their generous pension so they are relutant to move. All changes come with same people, similar idea, just change the name and titles. All wastes of time. Also, people worked too long here so they cannot accept what the outside world knowledge, even from their rivals.

Pros

Salaries are somewhat higher than market average. Plenty international travel opportunities, many internal training. In smaller regions more autonomy and degree of freedom to make decissions without involving too many people.

Cons

Top down management style, very politically driven organization. Chaotic decissions. In larger regions too many people involved to make a simple decission yet no personal accountability amongst the mid management. Definitely not a place for initiative and entrepreneural individuals. It often felt as if DuPont employees in France, Belgium, Germany, The Netherlands and many developing regions had lost their motivation and direction. Very dependent on the manager's personality. More pragmatic - lucky you are to work with; more corporate politics - a guaranteed deterioration.
