Pros

The people in research groups are excellent. At every level, you will find technical experts who are excited to share their knowledge and help each other succeed. Interesting and exciting projects to work on (when they aren't being killed by the business groups). Great place to start a career. Good salary, 9/80s, benefits.

Cons

No interest or incentives for upper business management to develop and support a long term vision/plan. They occupy positions for a year or two at most and take their promotions and leave. Not compatible with new product development. Largely flat organization with career opportunities for chemical engineers only. Everyone else has limited/no career development or progression opportunities.

Pros

Several: opportunities to meet and present to management; company will give you responsibilities that you demonstrate an aptitude for; strong focus to build young engineers; pay is generally good compared to other industries outside of O&G, bonus, profit share, pension, reimbursements; purchasing/renting perks; stable work place.

Cons

Lacking strong/deep engineering discipline skills; raises are based on a computer algorithm input from the "Distinguished [Top 1%] (Must be called on from other locations)", "Superior [Top 10%]", or "Fully Successful [majority]" evaluations; promotions are mostly based on a time of service system; evaluation tool is used as a check the box for HR and not to truly build the employee for advancement; excessive work load due to under-staffing; wastes engineers on paperwork instead of solving problems for technicians or contractors.
