      They try to hire best in class students and then ruin their passion by not offering them equal opportunities

      CEO approval

      Pros

      Friendly working environment, decent payment (similar to peer companies), flexible working hours if you are not working as a technician or in the manufacturing. Company shares as a nice benefit and if you are in commercial departments, you can receive some decent awards. If you work for RD or TSD, forget about it.

      Cons

      Too many organizational changes. Even though they say they offer equal opportunity, there is no equal job opportunity in this company. Forced performance ranking. Very few women and minority are able to make senior leadership roles.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Big company, gets away with a lot. Good people at the mid to lower levels. On commercial side you get to go to big events on the corporate card.

      Cons

      CEO is a bozo. No credibility. Strategy is incoherent. Shuffles leaders, managers, and presidents every 6-12 months. Nobody ever challenges him or they are gone. Sponsor the olympics for 10 years??? YOU ARE A CHEMICAL COMPANY NOT A CONSUMER FOCUSED COMPANY. What a waste of time and $$$ Again shareholder devalue. His #2 sitting in Europe is a waste of $$ to shareholders and has never done anything to create value. No respect for women in the executive wing. Awesome women who challenged Euro weenie were shown the door. The CEO was called the worst CEO ever by Mad Money and put on the wall of shame. CEOs went nuts and put a big $ push to all his CEO cronies to get that taken down. AND THYE DID! That should say it all. Also, look at the lawsuit by the female compliance officer First, decried here. and now, try to settle. Another waste of shareholder $$.
