Pros

A good company with a decent benefits program. The work force community is overall dedicated and care about their work. Safety is big at Cabot and they try to involve everyone in one way or another. The hours were flexible and most managers were pretty good about work time and family. I enjoyed my time at Cabot and had excellent managers over the years.

Cons

Not sure that upper management is in tune to what is happening on the lower levels and almost appears not to want to either.

Pros

Some good people and good location around Boston area.

Cons

Cabot did not feel like an employee-focused company during my time there. I observed multiple layoffs, including employees who had been hired only a few months earlier. The work environment was often very stressful, with heavy workloads and frequent organizational changes. Communication across different management layers was sometimes inconsistent, leading to mixed messages and unclear priorities. Before accepting a position, I would encourage candidates to carefully evaluate the role, team, and long-term stability of the organization. Significant changes can occur quickly, and it's important to understand the potential impact on work-life balance and career plans.
