      Pros

      Company success prior 2018. Location.

      Cons

      Current management of the company treats employees as disposable objects. Company lost close to 60 employees in the last 2 years, most of which left by themselves since they did not see any promising future within Evonik. No professional grow for many, no salaries increase compatible with inflation in the region and annual bonuses nothing but a joke. People got tired of it and leave in a search of better options. The company upper management relies on two principles -Nepotism and Despotism. Some of those who is on the top of the chain have a very limited professional knowledge in the field they try to manage and huge ego. This company has no future, unless something drastically changes on the top of it. Stay away from this company and you will be better off.
