Pros

If you're interested in chemical engineering, EM is the ideal place for you. The whole industry focuses around chemical engineering with lots of support groups to help you accomplish your job. As another engineer, you play primarily a support role. While the compensation is great, the role changes little when advancing outside of chemical engineering. In essence, you always support chemical engineers, but some people like this aspect of the job because you're always working with people. Again, great benefits and competitive pay.

Cons

Not the greatest location. Beaumont is a big city with enough activity to keep you entertained, however you shouldn't expect the grandeur of a stereotypical big city.

Pros

They have procedures for everything. Safety is really number one priority. Great people, mostly. The salary is the best in the industry.

Cons

There is a forced ranking system, so some people are driven to backstabbing. Lots of red tape, but that is how they control spending.
