Pros

Decent salary & benefits compared with other chem companies. Work life balance in my current job. There are a variety of jobs available within the company. Work with many great people!

Cons

Musical bosses - management positions are stepping stones for those wanting to move up and are changed often. Many of these people are great engineers, but have zero people skills and are given very limited training for their new management roles. Work life balance is not supported adequately at the plant sites. Benefits have decreased over the last several years (medical insurance premiums, when reach medicare age - the med insurance does not pay remaining portion after medicare (remaining 20%), Reduced pension and survivor benefits for those employed before 2007(did improve 401k matching - for all the good it does in the current market!), no pension for new employees after 2007 Even though there are a variety of jobs available and open in DuPont, your business will not always release you and can hold you in your current role for an unlimited time.

Pros

Great people, strong commitment to safety, competitive pay and benefits, and excellent work-life balance. The company provides opportunities to work on meaningful projects with talented cross-functional teams, and there is a culture of collaboration and continuous learning. Flexible work arrangements and supportive managers (depending on the organization) make it a great place to build a long-term career.

Cons

Frequent organizational changes and restructuring can create uncertainty, and decision-making can be slowed by bureaucracy. Career growth opportunities may be limited in some organizations, and employees can become siloed or feel disconnected depending on the role and team.
