Pros

good pay and benefits a lot of attn from management (good attention and not micromanaging - lots of teambuilding) nice environment - people definitely make this a lifetime career and community - everyone says hello in the elevator or hallway - very friendly and welcoming a lot of resources to get your job done good communication across depts - minimal silo problems great marketing team and a very progressive marketing dept particularly for a b2b

Cons

overheard some rumbling from others about "old school" in terms of pay and promotion - but i saw a wide range of people in management so this may just be bitterness from a few individuals the company is huge so obviously people will be passed over some i disliked being in a cubicle and wanted more teamwork kingsport is a small town - not a lot to do

Pros

Plants are located outside of standard chemical production localities. Work schedule is less taxing than some chemical companies. Benefits were good.

Cons

Plants are located in small towns. Resistant to change and new ideas - not invented here syndrome. Becoming more of a standard chemical/petrochemical company but with less MBA's.
