Pros

The pay was great for the position. This is for the most part one of the easiest things to do if you are not interested in advancing. Great bonuses and benefits even when other companies were cutting employees, pay, and hours.

Cons

Management is completely clueless. They do not see what really happens in the lab environment and most of them forget where they came from. Management takes the word of employees who are deceitful and climb the ladder by stepping on others. They give the illusion that they promote from within but once again its all about who you know not what you can do for the company. Management will find a way to hold employees back every step of the way. People I worked with were backstabbers and liars, all for the sake of advancing their own career. No one wanted to take responsibility for anything they did, and they would push blame off on someone else. This section really doesn't have enough space to address all the cons of this place.

Pros

supportive environment, friendly coworkers, there were many opportunities for interns to learn a lot about chemistry and working in a large corporation, the company really seemed to want to please its employees

Cons

hard to do significant work in the chemical synthesis department without a PhD (but this makes sense), some age gaps, some said it wasn't glamorous enough for them
