Pros

I've been working for BASF Catalyst Division for over 4 years now and I can't come up with a lot of positives. benefits are good, that's really it.

Cons

Working hard does not pay off at BASF. middle management definetly worries more about the squeaky wheel than the people working hard to make the place a success. middle managmnt is very weak and as a result people do not get along, it's a very malicious hostile environment and HR is not interested in solving the problems. getting a promotion is not realistic. the general consensus is that your position is generally a dead end. BASF doesn't invest in your career or show any commitment to keeping you around. instead they will hire an external candidate and require you to show them their job. very backward thinking.invest
