BASF reviews

The same people got the same jobs and the promotions. Locals always overlooked Poor management and leadership Poor IT systems Little or no accountability for staff Too many expat Germans on "holiday" Bureaucratic and not supports innovation and creativity Poor salaries high attrition rate - not many get past two years Business performance and outlook not good

Being so large, lots of bureaucracy which can make it difficult to move up. A little bit old-fashioned / close-minded compared to equivalent US companies. Minimal life/work balance, although that seems to be changing. Either way, they demand a lot and employees seem constantly stressed, overloaded and overworked (more so than others considering that's the situation everywhere). Pay is probably at or slightly above industry average - if you get hired from outside. Pay increases for continuing employees was pretty low, even those with high merit scores.
