Pros

There are a lot of very bright enthusiastic people working for AkzoNobel. As result it’s easy to experience the synergy of this multinational company and to connect with colleagues who are willing to support you.

Cons

AkzoNobel tends to underinvest in its people and its facilities and gloss things over. Continuous improvement is top-down, one size fits all. As a result depth of knowledge is not valued and overall performance falls short.

Pros

Excellent benefits ( 40+ vacation days) and overall salary progression. Many opportunities to move internally every 2 years. Company values multidisciplinary approach and jumps from one area to another.

Cons

Low emphasis on delivering on time. No sufficient turnover in some areas. Big corporate structure with top down approach results sometimes in working for non value added project on shop floor.
