Pros

Company is very good. It takes care of its employees very well. There are lot of learning opportunities within the organisation.

Cons

Senior Management is not that good because employees have been working here for more than 5-10 years. These employees don't work & then burden comes on newly joined employees. Even after complaining to Department Head, no action is taken. The only concern is with those working for more than 10 years in the organisation as they think they are the boss of company

Pros

Provides the opportunity of a good life-work balance (in Europe at least)

Cons

Extremely hierarchical company, senior management change their minds every time (lack of consistency), poor communication from the management, lack of good leaders, people in wrong positions, general unpleasant atmosphere. If you come to work for Clariant be ready to do what you have to do and go home. If you want to contribute, be active, have the chance to learn and grow, participate in the decisions, this is not the company for you.
