      Pros

      Good pay, very smart people in the chemical industry, good benefits, nice international feel to the organization.

      Cons

      Standard big company politics, performance is rewarded to a degree, but politics can also trump performance. The yearly review system is antiquated, used more as a stick than a carrot.

      Thanks for providing a constructive feedback. At Arkema, we do our best to reward individual performance and our employees' commitment. If you think (at your level) that it was not the case, we do hope that you took time to discuss it with your supervisor and your HR so they could make some adjustments. Again, it is very important for us to accelerate the skills/career growth of all our employees in a good working environment. We wish you the best for the future.

      Pros

      Great people Great opportunities Willing to give more responsibility/grow Good work life balance while also still having good drive at work

      Cons

      Not a lot of cons, everyone is very understanding and the small office could be a downside for resources, but personally did not find that to be an issue

      Pros

      Site Culture Global specialty materials strategy has proven to be quite good

      Cons

      Resource constraints. But this is quite common in chemicals/specialty materials these days from what I hear.
