Pros

Excellent perks, employee benefits and lots of generous discounts. Great network opportunities due to large company, easy to relocate or move to other roles

Pros

BASF is truly progressive and interested in finding and implementing sustainable solutions for many urgent global issues. The company is interested in hiring the brightest and most driven employees who are going to continue to work to improve themselves and the company.

Cons

Employees must be willing to learn new things and change positions (possibly moving to new locations) in order to grow. There is a strong push to promote from within, but a particular position is unlikely to change in title as in the traditional sense of "getting a promotion."
