Pros

* Excellent work environment (people) *Relatively flexible (depends on who you report to) *Good pay

Cons

* As others have stated there is a "its who you know, not what you know" mentality. However I feel some postings have overstressed this and the comment on Dow being a "global matrix and network" is more accurate. It is a large company networking is expected.

job is challenging and rewarding you have the opportunity to learn and grow great people and you can have fun while you work
