Unique culture, predictable industry "politics" - Chemist Brewer Science Employee Review

Pros

The company has a modern attitude when it comes to the employees - a fitness center was recently built, and the yoga and "Biggest Loser" programs reenforce the company's position: that it cares about its employees. Many of the managers here have had a recently short (<5 years) employment, prior to promotion, and most employees move up the ladder fairly quickly. Those who want to work in a global company without having to live in a large city will thrive in this atmosphere.

Cons

The departments have poor communication - when a problem comes back from a customer, there is a lot of infighting and finger-pointing as to who is to blame. Promotions tend to happen more often to those who become friends with their boss, and quick promotion also means that there are a lot of managers with little to no experience actually managing an employee. This can be frustrating to new employees, looking for a mentor. The female-to-male ratio is very poor in the chemistry and engineering departments - in a team of twenty chemists and chemical engineers, it is not uncommon to find only one or two females.
