The plant you are talking about in Geismar I think is Methanex, the plant from Chile

Definitely. The same company used to have a plant in West Jeff that my dad worked at during the 70s.

You'd be surprised how safe most chemical plants are (especially DOW). The materials are hazardous but you work at a snail's pace at best.


Not where I work. If I'm working days, I'm lucky if I get to eat during my 12 hour shift.

Really, it depends what unit you work in.

Dow is currently expanding their existing Taft, La. Plant to do exactly this. Work has been ongoing for almost one year. However Dow recalled many of their early retirees (read laid off) from previous 2-3 years when they down sized. The former Dow employees got the good jobs and outside contractors got the rest.
Great opportunity if you are not working, but look closely what may happen over 3-5 years.

So cliff notes of this thread: everyone is expanding and hiring.
