Downfall of a once great employer, layoff culture
Pros
Good insurance and 401k match. Company cafeteria food and on site coffee bar were great,
Cons
I left a great, stable job to join Eastman and my role was eliminated (I am so angry at myself for joining this company) Read on... Constant fear of layoffs. Overall silent, poor culture. Everyone is afraid of speaking up or being anything other than a 'yes' man. Super woke culture, constant push for DEI education. No one in corporate knows what anyone else is doing. Annual and semiannual review process is daunting and time consuming. No onboarding or training (widely known fact across the board) MarCom department is not respected at all and was mostly disbanded with many key jobs sent to Mexico City rather than within USA (this company is not for the home team) and Specialty Plastics is the worst possible culture and business anyone could join - do not join this team! Other BUs at Eastman appear to be great, full of happy people - but not SP! Run!!
