Pros

The ethical standards at PPG are high and are deeply imbedded in the corporate culture. The company plays by the rules and plays to win. PPG is built to last and has a demonstrated ability to evolve successfully as fundamental waves of change ripple through the Coatings, Specialty Chemicals and Materials industries.

Cons

The company is too Pittsburgh centric. The company IT systems are not advanced and user friendly.

Pros

Acceptable 401K matching with immediate vesting as well as an age based deferred compensation program that has a 3 year vesting period. Standard benefits and pay consistent with industry. Acceptable safety practices defined and adhered to throughout organization.

Cons

Moderately high turnover (at least my division). Inconsistent treatment of employees (flex time allowed for some employees but not others in same work category, some employees told to use personal car or phone for work activities while others get in trouble for same type of work activity, allowing some employees the options to apply and move internally while others are not allowed - and are sometimes even forced to moved to a role for which they didn't apply against their desires). Inconsistent reporting of data and legal brushes aside your questions/findings making you seem like you did something wrong when uncovering something fishy.
