Pros

Decisive leadership, eclectic culture, employees focused on results and doing the best thing for the business, small enough to be more progressive than larger petrochem companies, opportunity to work on big projects and make a meaningful contribution, fun people, a CEO with a vision that keeps people on their toes

Cons

Leadership winds tend to change quickly, high turnover (and sometimes people disappear without warning or goodbyes). Occasionally, hires are duds, which derails the work. Leadership can be harsh and create unnecessary fire drills.
