Pros

Depending on the site you work at, you can have either great people with little office politics. A Lyondell site is a great place to work, a Basell site not so much.

Cons

There are obvious clique's and either you're in them or you're shunned. There is not a good culture. Not many training opportunities compared to other companies Pay isn't competitive.

Pros

Great experience and well known chemical manufacturing, minimal layoff since org continuously runs lean, in office environment with heavy commute for most

Cons

Lower pay offering versus their competitors in chemical commodities or O&G, long hours expected for salary employees, extremely lean organization
