Eastman has changed and not for the better!
Pros
Pros are quickly dwindling. It is a paycheck but that is about all and a paycheck that is quickly falling behind its peers.
Cons
As a 30+ year employee I have seen lots of changes. The first 20 years was great. Great pay, great working conditions, wonderful benefits and a real place to set your roots for career. The last 8-10 years it has quickly spiraled downward under the leadership of the current CEO and top management. Pay, promotions, benefits have all decreased. A woke work environment is forced upon everyone. Eastman used to havethe best work environment, everyone I worked with in my first 20 years, worked together, no matter the race, religion, sexual preferences, etc...Since the management push to woke extremes, the environment has become fearful, self centered and not about teamwork, promotions are not based on merit and the pay and benefits have become woefully lagging. It is sad to see a company in which you work your entire career to make the environment better actual destroy itself because of poor management. I am not a disgruntled employee, just an observation of my years at Eastman. My suggestion - lf you are looking at Eastman as a possible employer - keep looking, there are a lot of good people leaving Eastman to go to greener, friendlier and better paying pastures.
