Pros

Arkema U,S is a great place to work. Opportunities for growth and training are made available to employees. The people you work with are collaborative. Management is helpful toward goal setting.

Cons

Incentive bonuses are only for select upper managers. There was no bonus program for other staff contributing to success this may be because the business is French owned & perhaps those types of incentives do not translate well. In America incentives are sought after.

Pros

I really loved working for Arkema. They are a very fair company (sometimes a but too liberal with work/life balance, i.e. taken advantage of) and treat employees very well. The work, although repetitive, was interesting.

Cons

The manager that hired me was great. Then he moved up and I got a manager that "knew everything" and shot down almost any idea I had. His boss was pretty unfriendly and expected miracles in order to promote/give out raises. This is pretty typical of any company, you just wait for bad mangers to move on, or you move on if you can't take it. I moved on.

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
