Pluspunten

The company has a modern attitude when it comes to the employees - a fitness center was recently built, and the yoga and "Biggest Loser" programs reenforce the company's position: that it cares about its employees. Many of the managers here have had a recently short (<5 years) employment, prior to promotion, and most employees move up the ladder fairly quickly. Those who want to work in a global company without having to live in a large city will thrive in this atmosphere.

Minpunten

The departments have poor communication - when a problem comes back from a customer, there is a lot of infighting and finger-pointing as to who is to blame. Promotions tend to happen more often to those who become friends with their boss, and quick promotion also means that there are a lot of managers with little to no experience actually managing an employee. This can be frustrating to new employees, looking for a mentor. The female-to-male ratio is very poor in the chemistry and engineering departments - in a team of twenty chemists and chemical engineers, it is not uncommon to find only one or two females.

Pluspunten

There is a good work/life balance. There is also opportunity to build your career as much as you can in your position because there is so much to do

Minpunten

Not enough resources and often a lot of pressure from upper management to get things done in an unreasonable timeline given the lack of resources.
