Pros

Dow offers great insurance from Aetna. The company has a low-cost set of nurse practioners that you can see for $10 a visit near the plant for general health needs. You can have a varied and interesting career here.

Cons

The company culture greatly favors people in their early thirties and below. If you have not become management by that age, then you may not be treated as well as you were earlier in your career. Dow's management practices ageism.

Pros

Great pay and benefits. Good job rotation so you're not stuck doing repetitive work for an entire shift.

Cons

Employees that don't do any work get paid more than those that do. Recognition program is just a popularity contest. You only get 2 holidays off a year, and it's a dice roll as to which two. There are no excused weather days, you must use vacation if it snows 12 inches. Seems kind of strange for a company that is supposedly so focused on safety. I guess they only want you safe while you're there, you must be reckless in order to get there. If you decide to leave the company, and do it the right way, you still have zero chance of getting rehired, it's the policy. If you do leave, they will do everything they can to see that you never get another job anywhere.
