Pros

Potential International Exposure. Learning about water treatment. Exposure to equipment along with the chemicals and service. Some of the average people are great.

Cons

Disjointed, dysfunctional company. Continually changing branding. No career development. Unqualified management. Business Unit Manager position merely a stepping stone for the chosen ones. Dishonesty. Culture of "not my job".

Pros

Good exposure to a large, complex organization with cross-functional collaboration. Opportunities to take on responsibility and learn quickly if you are proactive. Some strong internal frameworks and experienced individuals to learn from. Visibility across different teams and business units.

Cons

Lack of standardized processes creates unnecessary inefficiencies and rework. Too much reliance on individual knowledge instead of scalable systems. Cross-team communication is often reactive rather than coordinated, which slows execution. Roles and ownership are frequently unclear, leading to misalignment and finger-pointing. Tools exist but are not fully implemented or consistently used, resulting in avoidable manual work.
