Pros

As a contractor I enjoyed the fact that I worked through an agency that was onsite at the Dow office that had benefits almost comparable to Dow's. Agency offered paid holidays, vacation, matching 401K and optional health care.

Cons

Limited opportunities to advance. Contractors were furloughed when the company needed to cut cost.

Pros

No 2 days are ever the same, a lot of opportunity to grow in your careers as far as types of experiences, exposure and ownership. Dynamic work environment. Good exposure to leadership. Really nice co-workers and a lot of exposure to working in cross-functional and cross-cultural teams.

Cons

Work/life balance is difficult within the purchasing department. A key to succeed is to better prioritize tasks and work closely with your leader so that you don't get overwhelmed or work gets behind.
