Business Outlook

Pros

good benefits, flexible hours including remote schedules depending on the nature of the job, mostly good people to work with, challenging projects, supportive management

Cons

Overall Solvay was a good company to work for, but things have changed in the last 4 - 5 years with constant changes and reorganizations that's made working here more stressful than ever. Solvay has also recently announced a split into two entities so employees are not sure about the future at this time.

Pros

Good people, ready to answer any questions. The community is quite nice, there are several company events that happen every year. Communication is quite good, and the people all know each other well.

Cons

Might have been due to the pandemic, but most people spent their time within the offices.
