Pros

The chemistries that Eastman works with have the ability to significantly reduce the amount of plastics going into landfills.

Cons

Within the first year and a half of working at Eastman, there were major layoffs, multiple site-wide power outages, mandatory work on many federal holidays (as a salaried employee there was no compensation for this time), and a sub-par bonus and cost of living adjustment. This was all done while praising the results of our group.

Pros

Good pay, schedule is both pro and con, 7 consecutive days off a month was great, good retirement program with 401k match. Getting on at Eastman can truly feel like a long term career that you can retire from.

Cons

schedule can be crazy flipping days and nights. Sometimes too much red tape with stuff
