      Good Job but stressful

      Production engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good salary Lots of advancement opportunity Good Benefits Many locations world wide

      Cons

      Mostly Union plants in U.S., can lead to toxic/negative work environment High management turnover (pro if you're looking to move up quickly) 24/7 production leads to a lot of stress and being on call frequently Hard to advance above middle mgmt. if you're not willing to re-locate every 3 years

      Overall good company

      Laboratory technician
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Benefits are good. they have 401k plans, and a partial help tuition program. It is a professional organized work environment. I would recommend working here if you can put up with the cons.

      Cons

      Management is too strict. They like to micromanage and try to find something wrong you did so they can write you up. They try to blame employees for everything that goes wrong. Especially when it comes to safety.

      Pros

      at least I make money

      Cons

      I understand safety is important but they try to just find stuff to write you up for. the management is worthless the company solvay bought us from ran much smoother and was making record sales monthly now were lucky to have a job. management is very vindictive and they don't post jobs like they should they just give them to who ever they want
