Able to learn a lot, fast. Aggressive accounting knowledge, and people skills are developed fast. There's many opportunities to communicate with higher management.

Cons

Too profit driven, without much op for job development. Turnover rate is high and political culture comes into play. Being hostile gets you places

Business Outlook

Pros

The silicone industry has a good long term prospects, but first it must pass the global economic downturn to absorb the industry's overcapacity. MPM probably has the most global footprint in the silicone industry, originating from its heritage companies (GE, OSi, Bayer & Toshiba silicones), but....

Cons

... MPM is not operating globally because, having missed the opportunity to structure itself globally when created from GE-Silicones and its JV companies, the operation of the Regions remains disjointed. MPM is trying to restructure globally but is now having to do so during the global economic crisis (= sales are down), when there is substantial over-capacity in the silicone industry (= margins are down) and while carrying debt from the buy-out that created MPM which exceeds annual sales revenue.
