Pros

The company is breaking away from the Ashland corporate mentality, but there is a lot of work to do in order to establish a positive culture. There is a lot of opportunity to grow the business.

Cons

Solenis as a whole needs to develop their technology base if they want to compete with the big boys. Due to turnover and retirements over the past 10 years, a lot of expertise has been lost and not passed on or replaced.

Pros

Paycheck, decent (Though expensive) insurance and good PTO (If you can take it). Coworkers and technicians are exceptional.

Cons

Absolute absence of work/life balance, PE company focused on keeping SG&A costs to a bare minimum and unwilling to increase headcount to handle increased business, no training program, no coherent plan for cruise business investment, no regard given to feedback to director level, say that comp time is given but it is impossible to claim with volatile environment. Did I mention the expectation of 24/7 availability for contact and work availability? Run, do not walk, away from these people.
