Pros

Eastman Chemical is a very friendly, comfortable place. It is in a beautiful setting in NE TN. Management is very solid and professional. Business is good as is the outlook for the next few years.

Cons

The culture of the area is very small town south - polite but very conservative, so it's not for everyone. Diversity could use some more work.

Pros

Friendly, helpful colleagues. Vast variety of opportunities for engineers, especially younger ones. Actively supporting the communities where we live and work. Recent changes in management have restored positive outlook.

Cons

A lot of eggs are in the circular-economy basket rather than having the risk more evenly distributed among our product streams. We've lost a lot of talent recently to other businesses, partly because of unhappiness with former management but partly because of pay. Annual pay increases exist but have not even come close to keeping up with inflation.
