Pros

Most admired chemical company in the world, sensible long-term strategy, likely to be a profitable company in the long-run, due to its size unlikely to be taken over by another company.

Cons

Work-life balance is compromised (varies across different companies within the Group). Salaries especially in Germany tend to be rather ungenerous due to its dominant size in the region.
