So disappointing that the NAEC can see but doesn't demand change... - Finance BASF Employee Review

Pros

Good salaries and excellent benefits. The perfect employer for the non-diverse B and C team employee. They don't ask too much of you and you can hide for a whole career.

Cons

No career path for high performers. Advancement is not based on performance but on being able to excuse failure. Maintaining the status quo is the most important thing to senior management. There is no accountability whatsoever for wasted money, failed projects, lost sales, missed budgets or lack of compliance. There are no African-Americans in senior business roles...not one in an employer of 100,000+ employees, 15,000 in U.S alone. I'm ashamed that I stayed so long.
