Pros

Decent 401k, you can hide there being mediocre for years

Cons

Management is all political with people being pushed into positions where they are incompetent. Basf is not customer focused and spends too much time defining what a customer is than working with the customer. Product and margin focused with very limited concern on relationships and long term customer engagement.

Pros

Great working environment, very inclusive. Management appears to care alot about diversity and inclusion. Many opportunities to develop oneself and work on projects to spotlight your strengths. Possibility for movement internally to keep yourself challenged and to meet your career goals. Many locations globally for those that are mobile and would like to develop even faster! Large company provides many networking possibilities.

Cons

It's a large, global corporation...change can feel like it happens slowly. Lots of layers of management. Decision-making has to go through many layers of the organization.
