Pros

A lot of talented people. They hire only the best and say all the things to make you feel like you are appreciated. Friendly atmosphere. Growing company with a lot of potential. They are good and making you believe you are part of something exciting and that they value you and your ideas.

Cons

Poorly managed from CEO and entire leadership team. They are all on the last leg of their careers and are just waiting to retire after they take the company public and cash in. They are not interested in the future of the company or the development of their team members unless you are their friend. Many of the Executives came from Dow which is known to bully, push others down, step over them to pull themselves up. This is especially true with the General Counsel. Good lawyers do not necessarily know how to handle the business needs of a global company. She knows how to present a competent and dynamic personality but she has no substance or leadership skills. She relies on Sr Legal Specialist to make her administrative business decisions, who has no managerial, financial or technical background (just a gruff disposition) and has no business making decisions on processes she doesn't understand. They only know their way of doing things from working together for 20 years and bullying tactics that they learned from Dow. Watch your back if dealing with these people.

Pros

If you like change then this is the company for you. If you think it is bad just wait the splendid management team has a way to find out how to make it worse.

Cons

Employees are just pawns to management to obtain bonuses. Management is very short sighted and none appear to have any long term planning capabilities. There is a good old boys club and if you look at the management team many are long friends of others. They fail at one company and then they get hired at another and bring all of their friends with them. If you dont have their views then your job time is limited. Disagree one time and your career is basically over.

Pros

Big Salaries, when you're on their team, they do anything for you, send you gifts, praise your ability, give you a big expense account. They have fun and party, fly you out to sales conferences, to meet with customers- WHATEVER you want.

Cons

They'll drop you with no-warning. Several people I know were successful, good, hard-working people (myself included), were praised for their hard work , dedication and then all of the sudden a call comes out of nowhere that you're terminated. Be VERY Careful, they have no loyalty and if an account is lost, they cut heads.
