Braskem
Hiring · 13 open jobsGeneral information
Braskem is a petrochemical company that makes plastics and chemicals, including polyethylene, polypropylene, and PVC, plus biopolymers from sugarcane ethanol under its 'I'm green' brand. It has offices in Philadelphia, United States, and industrial units in Brazil, the United States, Mexico, Europe, and Asia.
Braskem was founded in São Paulo, Brazil, on August 16, 2002, when six companies merged: Copene, OPP, Trikem, Nitrocarbono, Proppet, and Polialden. It is a public company; its largest shareholders are Odebrecht, with 38.25%, and Petrobras, with 32.15%. In 2017, it had 7,656 employees and revenue of $14.7 billion. In 2016, it was fined $957 million for bribery, and in 2026 its Mexican unit filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. That matters: trouble keeps recurring at Braskem, from the 2016 fine to the 2026 bankruptcy filing.
Currently, there's a total of 10 job openings at Braskem. Over the last 30 days, 3 jobs were added and 1 was removed (job postings usually stay up ~23 days before being removed). Braskem is an H-1B sponsor.1
