Pros

Variety to many different processes and equipment found in chemical engineering. A lot of personal ownership, involvement and decision making. A lot of support, opportunities and freedom to develop your skills. Hands on exposure to control systems/DCS, chemical systems, reactive processes, separation processes and more. Perfect for someone early in their career to develop first hand experience in projects, operations and engineering calculations for design/modelling. Get to work with people for a whole range of disciplines and skillsets (operators, engineers, trades) who have decades of experience behind them. They are a wealth of information and you can learn a lot from them.

Cons

Little opportunity for permanent senior process engineering positions and complex design experiences.

Pros

- Education benefits (but access/support depends on your manager) - Flexible workplace (work hours/wfh) - Diverse workforce.

Cons

- Does not support employee promotions. Very difficult to get promoted if you are not an engineer. - Low pay, salary increases depend on manager. For the past couple years, most employees did not even receive adjustment for inflation. - Constantly loses top talent because management is unwilling to invest to keep good employees.
