Pros

Very friendly atmosphere; excellent work/family time balance; easy communication The company is one of the leading producers of polyacrylamide: good range of products with high potential

Cons

Top management has been buying and selling a large number of companies / business units over the past decade, having a trouble of properly integrating acquired ones: they acquire fixed assets but people and knowledge. Business units structures change every 6 months. Chaos with management and reporting. Very poor safety training No sales training that would be universal for the whole of the company. The company positions itself as a manufacturing rather than sales. International logistics out of USA is very poor.
