Small company easygoing and friendly. Upper level management is approachable and easy to communicate with. Very family oriented and trusted.

Small company not much room to grow and is focused on the existing business rather than new products and market segments to penetrate.

Pros

Solvay has a very good training and development program if you able to take advantage of it. Benefits are good; compensation is good.

Cons

Executive managers can be jerks. They do not need your recommendation or input since they have already made the decision. It is a fast paced environment. If you are not identified as a golden boy" you will be relegated to a life of mediocrity.
