      OC is a good place to work & get experience, but the company lacks a clear vision for succeeding in the future.

      Pros

      OC is a global company with many different businesses that provide opportunity for advancement. I like the people that I work with and the underlying financials of the company are sound.

      Cons

      The overall benefits package outside of the 401K match is abysmal. Corporate support functions can be reorganized to better serve the business and reduce redundancy.

      Decent Experience, But Can Do Better.

      Pros

      The way most of the job areas divided you're almost forced to work in a teaming environment vs. the individual float or sink mentality. There’s plenty of projects going on to get some experience or specialty in a certain area for a couple of years. Though the culture seems to be in a middle of a change, it’s still a relationship driven company which benefits if you can get into it quickly. Overall headquarter facility has a good physical work environment.

      Cons

      Choose wisely before accepting an offer from this company. The pay is below market value, and health care benefits can be a near joke. The generation gap within the company spawns a lot of resistance to trying anything new with classic “it’s been done for x years” speeches. Be cautious of pigeonholing or taking on projects too far from the mainstream. You will quickly get stuck or have a long uphill trek to justify. Toledo, a rust belt city, where the main office is can be a hard place to live in especially if you’re not from the area or Mid-West. Look at the big picture. You can do worse, but you can do better too.

      Pros

      The people at OC are very fair and honest. They encourage you to train for future jobs that you may be interested in. Although the salary was not the best I felt like I was able to make up for it with there bonus program. The leadership team often does have there employees in mind an tries to listen to there concerns when they arise. I would recommend Owens Corning to anyone that is looking for a stable career with a fortune 500 company that is growing in both building materials and green products. It was a great place to work.

      Cons

      Often times it takes to much time to get things done.
