Not a bad place to work at DuPont

Business Outlook

Pros

Good 401K benefits, job security, longevity. The average age of the company is at least late 40s, reflecting the fact that few people have left the company in the past and often work for them until retirement.

Cons

Culture is difficult to change and the salaries are not as competitive with similar external companies. There is a significant bureaucracy and many parts of the organization have their individual fiefdoms so coordinated actions across all business units in the company is difficult.

Pros

Dupont is a great place to work if you are looking for work-life balance, professional development, and trying new careers. Also, DuPont's pay and benefits are very good versus many other chemical companies. Everyone is generally very friendly and polite. In addition, coworkers are frequently willing to help each other. DuPont religiously promotes safety at work.

Cons

Working harder and smarter is not rewarded and being lazy is not punished. DuPont's culture values time in level for promotions. Politics and being liked is very important to career advancement.
