Pros

Eastman diversifies in a way that allows stability of both operations and employment. Though constantly changing over the years can, at times be uncomfortable, the ability to react and be proactive has helped this company weather many storms. Eastman has vastly improved in the work/life area over the years, allowing for flexible schedules and being more willing to work with employee's life situations. I've been here over 30 years, and see the future looking bright.

Cons

Pay is higher than most jobs in the region, but may still lag in some roles when compared to national averages. Hourly worker roles can become stagnant, when defined promotional limits are reached.

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.
