Pros

Lots of attention is spent on <8 year employees. Lots of opportunities if you want it and are willing to move.

Cons

It's a very big, corporate company. There's a lot of corporate fluff. Most engineers leave after 5-10 years and there always seems to be a revolving door of fresh college grads. Manufacturing leadership has a lot less control then they wish they had on budget or how to run their units. Since the Olin split I haven't seen leaders really developing the younger engineers and the site 'favorites' don't seem to be holding their people accountable. Mentoring young engineers and techs are one of the most important things in manufacturing. They are your people in the field who are going to run your plants reliably and keep people safe.
