Pros

PTO from day one is nice to have and the sick time. Also the 401k match

Cons

The Coatings group at Cheswick R&D is very toxic, racist, and sexist. Worst environment that I ever worked in. The worst 3 years of my entire life. Don't get a job with them. They also treat their contractors like second class citizens. Being a full-time employee I was disgusted with how they treated contractors that they give false hope to.

Pros

- Education benefits (but access/support depends on your manager) - Flexible workplace (work hours/wfh) - Diverse workforce.

Cons

- Does not support employee promotions. Very difficult to get promoted if you are not an engineer. - Low pay, salary increases depend on manager. For the past couple years, most employees did not even receive adjustment for inflation. - Constantly loses top talent because management is unwilling to invest to keep good employees.
