      Pros

      strong career development & coaching program, great work-life balance, safety culture, compensation & benefits, coworkers, growing company making smart investments

      Cons

      Advice from coworkers is to be open to frequently relocations if you are looking for rapid promotions. Otherwise your promotions may come at slower but reasonable time-intervals.

      Thank you for your response. Indeed, BASF is a great place to work and we are being recognized as such! Your co-workers are correct, being open to relocation increases the number of opportunities you have to grow and expand your career, which is natural, given the number of locations and businesses we have! However, if you are not mobile, there are still plenty of possibilities for you to grow your career and learn new things.

      Pros

      Safety stressed rigorously. All appropriate gear and supplies provided. Training and support was always there when needed. Chances for advancement.

      Cons

      Sometimes brutal temperature extremes, coupled with very physically demanding work. Some production equipment in need of repair or replacement. Long hours, and a strange shift rotation that can lead to a jet lag type of situation.

      Thank you for your post. During the interview process we provide a tour of the facility and set expectations. We do, however, appreciate the inconvenience the temperatures cause and do all that we can to mitigate the heat or the cold by providing extra breaks, fans, as well as free bottled water, Gatorade packets, etc.. With regard to the shifts - our employees are either on a night, or a day shift. If you have a concern, please talk to your manager or your HR representative.
