A total of 1,247 people participated in this year’s survey. We asked everything from annual salary earned to bonus information to likes and dislikes about the job. Readers gave us great insight into what it’s like to work in the chemical industry and what engineers are struggling with daily. No surprise, younger participants are concerned with absorbing knowledge. Noting this trend of experienced personnel leaving the work force, one participant advised those looking to become chemical engineers to “Get in early and learn as much as you can from the senior people before they retire.”
