Pros

The company is well positioned in the market, with excellent vertical integration, and many talented people. With shell gas influenced price competitiveness LYB is doing the right things well ahead of competition.

Cons

In this aggressive talent focused market LYB has been slow to respond to competitive changes in salary. New HR leadership is trying to make course corrections, but there is strong resistance from some of the top leadership.

Pros

Fair salary and bonus opportunity for committed employees. Puts employee safety first in every consideration. Good career opportunities. Moving forward positively after a few years of reorganisation.

Cons

Personal touch being lost as in most multi-nationals. Claim to be global but still very much American in style and in decision making. Need to move faster to mold own identity and culture rather than living of legacy companies.
