Pros

Strong safety culture. Pay and benefits are above average. Is it worth all the BS? I'm not sure. I haven't worked for enough other companies.

Cons

Excessive amount of policies and new initiatives. Often in conflict with one another. Difficult to follow every procedure that comes out and new ones coming every day.

Great experience and well known chemical manufacturing, minimal layoff since org continuously runs lean, in office environment with heavy commute for most

Lower pay offering versus their competitors in chemical commodities or O&G, long hours expected for salary employees, extremely lean organization
