Eastman is a great place to work. However, if you are in the sales environment, promotions and raises do not come easy.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people, great benefits, great understanding of work and life balance, believes in the "family message", variable compensation bonus plan,

Cons

average or slightly lower pay, you must be "in the club" for promotions-not always performance based. Frequent restructing within leadership team. A little rigid in their old ways of doing things and sometimes too worried about "the numbers" as most publicaly traded companies are. Unfortantely, that sometimes sacrafices business relationships and may hurt overall growth in the long run.
