Pros

There are still some very good employees working for the company. Hopefully Specialty Chemicals will be sold off, and these employees will be retained under new top management.

Cons

Top management does not care about their employees. Does not matter if you are a long time employee, you are expendable to them. Company is going through major reorganization. They waste money on bringing consultants in to call the shots. They pay outsiders to say that former management was all incompetent, so they could move them out, and hand pick who they wanted. If jobs are not being filled internally, there is a reason for that! APPLICANT BEWARE!
