Pros

Great 12 hour shift schedule allowing for work / life balance and the pat is on par or better than other similar companies

Structure changed towards hiring agency, no longer able to get a pension for new hires, getting used to the twelve hour shifts

Pros

The company provides some great perks and the atmosphere is generally curious with talented employees. They try to be competitive with the salaries and benefits but are usually reactive to the market.

Cons

BASF is a big company so it usually reacts slowly and it's easy to go unnoticed with so many people and moving parts. The job market within the company is pretty competitive.

Pros

Some department work with flex hours for working at home. Great benefits

Cons

Never know when your job is going to be gone. Can't get anywhere unless you are in the good old boy club. Some management are like high school girls. Was never allowed to have training. If my manager did not get training first then I was never allowed to take but most of the time she took it and I was never allowed. Complained to upper management about things I was going through and she never ever took control when my husband was dying in hospital and I was being called every other day on where I would be able to come in. Which I did work during the time he was in ICU.
