Pros
- Excellent work/life balance - Generous 401k plan, great healthcare options, good PTO and other benefits - Friendly atmosphere with colleagues all across the world - Diversified high performance materials portfolio - Room for advancement - Very thoughtful package if you are laid off like I unfortunately was
Cons
- Focused on short term gains for shareholders, not long term strategy for employees - Minimal reward and recognition for high performers - Little to no action taken to remove low performers - Fewer options to move and develop experience laterally across the company as business units have shrunk and been sold off - R&D has been essentially killed off. Don't expect any major breakthrough inventions anymore. Company is focused on innovating with existing products and growing through M&A
