Great development opportunities

Pros

Awesome development opportunities. It's a lean company so you get the opportunity to work on big things that you might not otherwise be able to do in other companies. People are constantly moving between businesses and functions in order to grow and engage them. Also great training opportunities. First place I've worked where they mean what they say about safety.

Cons

Base salaries aren't fabulous but totally fine, and bonus payout the past few years has been fabulous so more than makes up for it.

Pros

Fair compensation and pension plan pretty much sums it up. Improved management-employee interaction via townhalls. New CEO is better than his predecessors but he has a long way to go.

Cons

Terrible work life balance, 60-80 hour work week is normal, frequent turnarounds. Management in the C suite acts as shills, they have the oratorical skills to influence gullible employees. Management tries to own and micromanage employees. Bare minimum benefits which are not even at par with other chemical companies.
