Business Outlook

Pros

The level of autonomy given to junior-level employees is very attractive. The training and development opportunities abound and compensation is very competitive. The people are what make the company great. High quality all around

Cons

Headquarters location makes retaining top talent difficult. Industry cycles and feedstock costs make the Dow's continued prosperity questionable. Diverse and progressive, but a bit too paternal for the 21st century.

Business Outlook

Pros

Co-workers are excellent. There are many job opportunities, and supervisors work to develop employees for their specific development path. Large sites.

Cons

The locations are remote and isolated except for Plaquemine. Many new facilities are being built outside the United States, so the future may be uncertain for U.S. manufacturing.
