Pros

They are very supportive of young professionals and emphasize a learning and development culture. If you are in a business unit that matches your passion and experience, you can have a great experience at BASF. Even though the company is very large, it still has a small community feel because many people stay with BASF for their entire career.

Cons

If you are not a chemist or a chemical engineer, your ability to move within the company is much more limited. BASF could use more diversification to allow for more mobility of professionals with different experience.

Pros

BASF has a good structure in all process, and they give a lot of opportunity for you to grow up.

Cons

I was not sure about my limits and what was expected of me. Perhaps lack of questions or maybe lack of feedback.

Pros

Great people to work with and rub shoulders; annual goal opportunities for anyone with an ounce of initiative; global career opportunities for those who want them.

Cons

Rating system drives negative internal politics; typical large company syndrome - easy to get lost or unappreciated if you don't speak up for yourself.
