Pros

A good place to start your career if you are freshly out of school or need visa sponsorship. Eastman is nice to new people and compensation is good.

Cons

Career movement is very slow. Eventually you will find yourself become a second-tier politician and third-tier scientist if you want to be promoted (or "join the club"). Diversity is lacking - Need more people with diverse background sitting in management positions. Until so, Eastman will struggle competing globally.

Pros

Friendly, helpful colleagues. Vast variety of opportunities for engineers, especially younger ones. Actively supporting the communities where we live and work. Recent changes in management have restored positive outlook.

Cons

A lot of eggs are in the circular-economy basket rather than having the risk more evenly distributed among our product streams. We've lost a lot of talent recently to other businesses, partly because of unhappiness with former management but partly because of pay. Annual pay increases exist but have not even come close to keeping up with inflation.
