Pros

Pay is good and work life balance. Good people all around.

Cons

Benefits are not that great, but they are benefits, so I guess you can't complain. You may not last long if you do not have some type of knowledge of the chemical industry. I quit my job I had over 10 years to seek a new opportunity with this company only to be told 4 months later that my position is eliminated. Now I do not have a job. I could have stayed with the company I was with prior to becoming employed with them. Advice to anyone thinking of leaving the company they are with, please do yourself a favor and stay where you are or look at a different company. They may change their mind and fire you.

Pros

Exposure to large, high-value accounts and complex operational challenges. The role builds resilience quickly and provides strong experience in account management, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration. There is a high level of ownership in day-to-day responsibilities, which can accelerate skill development for those who are self-driven.

Cons

Since the acquisition by Apollo, the work environment has noticeably declined. While new processes were introduced, leadership often did not take the time to fully understand or follow them, creating confusion and inconsistency across teams. Employees who raised questions or tried to improve processes were not always received positively, which discouraged feedback and innovation. There is also a lack of alignment between departments, leading to inefficiencies, miscommunication, and added pressure on employees managing critical accounts. Workloads are frequently excessive without adequate support, contributing to burnout and turnover. Compensation does not consistently reflect the level of responsibility and workload expected, which further impacts morale and retention. Overall, the organization feels reactive rather than structured, and direction has become increasingly unclear.
