Pros

The role allows a scientist the freedom to jump between different projects and ideas. The people are the best part of the job.

Cons

The research department is isolated from HQ and it can be difficult to have visibility by higher roles. Upper management is a game of musical chairs.

Pros

Flexible hours, good pay, work with minimal oversight

Cons

Focus on DEI, promoting women and minorities rather than based on Merit. Rate of turnover in management so high that many managers have little understanding of the explosive/chemical business fundamentals. Consistently restructure every 2-3 years often laying off experienced employees.
