Slow career growth & high turn over

Engineering associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Stable employment and good 401k match. Other benefits are mediocre. Not a bad place to start your career if you can't get a job else where.

Cons

Poorly managed innovation efforts. Senior management is not receptive. No focus on career growth potential for employees and no transition plans. You see lot of people get interviewed but no one takes the job and so the job remains posted for years. The result is you get to see lot of people with no technical or people skills get promoted. High turn over and at least someone in the site will be leaving almost every week. Poorly paid compared to other industries in the same sector for chemical engineers. Poor local HR policies for the site and no standard policies.

Safety in labs and offices is paramount. Benefits seem about average with other companies as well. Vacation policy is acceptable

Little room for advancement in most areas. More training needs to take place for soft skills or even computer training. Choices for medical benefits are limited and contributions are increasing.
