Pros

Great flexibility in location, willingness to allow employees to relocate across the US and internationally as business needs dictate. Benefits and retirement plans are very competitive. The culture is friendly and fosters cooperation and teamwork as opposed to a very cutthroat environment where your coworker is more likely to steal your work than go out of their way to help you.

Cons

Salary, while competitive amongst the chemical industry does not compete with big oil - which is to be expected despite competing for similar education and talent.

Pros

Great benefits, hybrid & remote roles, great colleagues to work with. Great vacation /time off. Helpful colleagues

Cons

Reorganizations (roughly 3 years), IT roles dwindling in North America(moving to India), teams can get very silo-ed, “not my role” = not helping you (when you are looking for answers/assistance), currently seeing a lot of movement out of New Jersey (roles moving to other parts of the country), some organizational charts can be confusing, huge organization(can be difficult at times pinpointing the exact team you may need to work with)
