Pros

Good pay and benefits, fairly flexible schedule.

Cons

- Old stogie atmosphere - New employees are offered little training in most departments - Outdated procedures and lack of interest in changing or updating though some newer managers are trying - Lack of communication within organization causes frequent, unnecessary timeliness issues with orders. - Tuition reimbursement only seems to apply if you are going to school for what they want. If you desire to go into a different field you must get permission from management to study or you may risk losing your job. - If you start into tuition reimbursement program and quit or lose your job, you owe them all the money paid to that point.

Pros

Good pay, colleagues are great and very helpful

Cons

Provided no training even when coming from a different industry, which is very difficult when dealing with 1,000's of chemicals. Some managers aren't transparent with KPIs or expectations as well as minimal support from them. This is really dependent on the area of the country and what region you have. There are some really great regional managers in other areas of the country, and I unfortunately was not in one of those regions.
