      Good place but needs more diversity in senior roles

      Product manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      This is a good place to work with people who care about their jobs and co-workers. Colleagues are willing to help one another to complete projects. CEO genuinely cares about the well being of employees.

      Cons

      There is definitely a list of employees who are “chosen” for promotions and get “fast tracked” up the corporate ladder. If you are not on the “list” you will not get promoted. There is alot of secrecy around this. A lack of diverse leaders (especially Black) in people manager roles and leadership team.

      In decline

      Sales manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent 401k, you can hide there being mediocre for years

      Cons

      Management is all political with people being pushed into positions where they are incompetent. Basf is not customer focused and spends too much time defining what a customer is than working with the customer. Product and margin focused with very limited concern on relationships and long term customer engagement.

      Great corporation to join!

      Strategic sourcing manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great working environment, very inclusive. Management appears to care alot about diversity and inclusion. Many opportunities to develop oneself and work on projects to spotlight your strengths. Possibility for movement internally to keep yourself challenged and to meet your career goals. Many locations globally for those that are mobile and would like to develop even faster! Large company provides many networking possibilities.

      Cons

      It's a large, global corporation...change can feel like it happens slowly. Lots of layers of management. Decision-making has to go through many layers of the organization.
