      Pros

      Work with many of the best in the industry. Dow Chemical has good reputation of excellence and people are usually willing to help out and collaborate on projects.

      Cons

      Compensation is of a chemical company ... does not compare to a petrochemical company like Exxon or Shell or Chevron. Freeport location not very pretty ... but that's true for any plant environment.

      Pros

      With a company this big they are able to almost custom make a internship/ co-op experience. If you are looking for a company which is supportive of employees working towards finding their own role and interests Dow Chemical is the company for you.

      Cons

      As with any chemical company often times plant locations are not too desirable. Also if you are looking for a small company feel Dow Chemical is not for you, even-though plants themselves may be tight-knit the company as a whole is very large.
