Pros

Competitive salary, friendly co-workers, opportunity to learn.

Cons

Not competitive at all as there is no performance review process, management is very shady when delivering bad news, learned all the news about the company from newspapers, workers are valued based on their "good" relation with bosses not the quality of individual work (I have seen extremely bright, hard-working, overachievers being fired for no reason and lazy employees being promoted), not innovative as they claim to be.

Pros

Great experience and well known chemical manufacturing, minimal layoff since org continuously runs lean, in office environment with heavy commute for most

Cons

Lower pay offering versus their competitors in chemical commodities or O&G, long hours expected for salary employees, extremely lean organization
