Pros

Low hierarchical environment. Friendly and outgoing bosses. Flexible working arrangement.

Cons

Lack in strategy tailored by APAC. You cannot Ctrl C + Ctrl V European and US market strategy in Asia. Lack in people management - Some colleagues do more than others. Eventually, the good ones leave -because they do a lot more. Fancy "Project Brenntag" initiative was rushed to implement - not enough thought process put into this major initiative to reorganize the company.

Pros

My early experience at the company was positive and I was able to build strong tenure there.

Cons

I worked here for several years, but my experience changed significantly toward the end of my tenure. During my notice period, previously approved time off was not honored, and my departure schedule was adjusted in a way that felt inconsistent with prior approvals. Despite preparing coverage and training for my responsibilities, I was later described as leaving my team “high and dry.” There was also a shift toward a more structured, closely managed environment, along with a return-to-office policy that was applied differently across employees. It was a reminder that the end of an employee’s experience often reflects the culture just as much as the beginning.
