Pros

BASF is very diverse for a chemical company, with a broad mix of products and sites. Many of the businesses were brought in via aquisition, adding to the diversity. Because of the size of the company and its growth, there are almost always opportunities to apply to new positions if you are willing to relocate.

Cons

Rigid processes from service platforms drive consistency, but some are difficult to use. Collaborative, strategic decision making can at times be confusing causing missed opportunities.

Pros

Great benefits, hybrid & remote roles, great colleagues to work with. Great vacation /time off. Helpful colleagues

Cons

Reorganizations (roughly 3 years), IT roles dwindling in North America(moving to India), teams can get very silo-ed, “not my role” = not helping you (when you are looking for answers/assistance), currently seeing a lot of movement out of New Jersey (roles moving to other parts of the country), some organizational charts can be confusing, huge organization(can be difficult at times pinpointing the exact team you may need to work with)
