Pros

work life balance is good assuming you want to stay at or below manager level. Capable operational people. Commercial people have inconsistent talent. some very good and some not.

Cons

Operation and execution is very good. But, strategy and vision are very poor. It is big. Not agile. The culture has the people compare their work against themselves and always find a reason to pat on their own back no matter how they perform against others in the market place.

Pros

Great flexability in work time, time off and breaks.

Cons

Contractors are taken advantage of. They are expected to do the exact same job as their Dow co-workers but, they are denied raises while they watch their peers receive bonuses and raises.
