Business Outlook
Pros
deep pockets unasailable market share in Germany good process engineering skills focus on environment
Cons
bureacratic, cold, aloof, stifling duplicitous - none of the statements made during the takeover of Engelhard turned out to be true weak, dishonest, pathetic management - starting with the team that integrated Engelhard If you're not German you have no future with the company at all Weak R&D low-end, commodity business focus - inevitably will lose out due to rise of Middle East higher-end chemical businesses, US energy cost advantage, and aging, shrinking European market
