Pros

Real "global company", well structured, works together in a global way.

Cons

It's a typical US Company that takes decisions based on quarterly results. Outside of the US, they care less about their people. One day you got a nice job, the next day it could be over; if you're unlucky and took part in restructuring operations.

Pros

Some good people and good location around Boston area.

Cons

Cabot did not feel like an employee-focused company during my time there. I observed multiple layoffs, including employees who had been hired only a few months earlier. The work environment was often very stressful, with heavy workloads and frequent organizational changes. Communication across different management layers was sometimes inconsistent, leading to mixed messages and unclear priorities. Before accepting a position, I would encourage candidates to carefully evaluate the role, team, and long-term stability of the organization. Significant changes can occur quickly, and it's important to understand the potential impact on work-life balance and career plans.
