Pros

Arkema makes great products that are sustainable.

Cons

There aren't enough resources, the company runs very lean. Directives come from the Corporate HQ in France that do not make sense to implement in every country. Communication is often poor because it is so hierarchical. You will find yourself working on the same topics all the time without much progress.
