Avient reviews

Seldom to none promotions. Very high employee turnover. Company continuously advertise on job boards and recruiters to fill vacancies. Management is comprised of greatly opportunistic "clubs" that for most part don't understand the business and lead the company downhill. Morale is down as employees fear for the future of the company and their jobs due to management's inexperience and mistakes that drives business away. All this adds up and increases expenses due to the need of continued employee replacements, customer's trust erosion due to company instability and gradual loss of technical edge due to migration of key professionals migrating to more stable and rewarding opportunities.

As a public company, they can often be shortsighted in their tactics in order to ensure they meet their quarterly and year end metrics to maintain/increase their stock price. This can result in different departments having different objectives that may not be in the customer's best interests lon-term. You will work very hard here - in some roles, often nights, weekends and while on vacation. Management gives more priority to commercial and management roles than to support roles which often creates bottlenecks and insufficient support and leads to poor morale. As said in some other reviews, executive management seems to regard personnel as sheep or horses at times - incapable of making good decisions on their own and prone to idleness if they don't stay on them and overload them with metrics and documentation and additional tasks. They have taken away most of the decision making capability from medium levels and hired layers of managers instead, often requiring a series of approvals to get logical things accomplished.
