Pros

Nice people well intention, good balance between work and personal life. Smart people around and flexibility on schedules

Cons

The industry, it engineer culture to over analyze everything to death and it's slow reaction If you are young, creative, ambitious, react fast, leadership attitud and a person who hate to loose shut yourself before working here.. The fact is that Air products is num 4 out of 4 and for most of management like it that way. If you like slow pace 8 to 5 job looking at your process only instead of looking the whole business you would like it.

Pros

I learned a lot from the teams I worked with over my tenure. If I was particularly interested in learning about certain parts of the business, I was often allowed to tackle those challenges. Mentors were very helpful and encouraging. I enjoyed the people I worked with and they always tried to open doors into other parts of the company I was interested in.

Cons

If you want to be doing mostly pure mechanical design work, there is less of that available at Air Products. Lots of opportunities for operations, project management, and EPC roles for mechanical engineers, and pressure vessel work from my perspective. In the initial round of placements, you get matched to one team (you can join or not) — it was not exactly my cup of tea from a day to day work perspective. Second round, I was able to join a team where I absolutely loved doing the day to day work.
