      Pros

      When you get a job with PPG, you don't have to worry about losing it. It's hard to get your foot in the door, but once you do, they try to keep you in. It's a large company, and they are currently struggling to recruit, so there is & will be lots of room for advancement now and as the baby boomers begin to retire. The pay is decent and the benefits are good.

      Cons

      Their way of treating employees is very outdated. Good performance ratings are restricted to a certain percentage of the company. If you and all of your co-workers do an awesome job, it looks like you're going to have to alternate the good performance reviews & bonus escalations from year-to-year. There is minimal investment in the quality of the workplace.

      Pros

      Acceptable 401K matching with immediate vesting as well as an age based deferred compensation program that has a 3 year vesting period. Standard benefits and pay consistent with industry. Acceptable safety practices defined and adhered to throughout organization.

      Cons

      Moderately high turnover (at least my division). Inconsistent treatment of employees (flex time allowed for some employees but not others in same work category, some employees told to use personal car or phone for work activities while others get in trouble for same type of work activity, allowing some employees the options to apply and move internally while others are not allowed - and are sometimes even forced to moved to a role for which they didn't apply against their desires). Inconsistent reporting of data and legal brushes aside your questions/findings making you seem like you did something wrong when uncovering something fishy.
