Pros

-They are a large company -Class A equipment, but most companies have that -I was able to leave and get a job that literally paid $10k more for exactly the same work and hours -Johnson Matthey is backwards, so if youre hyper conservative and like working for nothing, this is the place for you

Cons

-Draconian rules and regulations regarding employees liberties -75% of people that work here are uptight, unfriendly, arrogant and generally unlikable -They expect you to be a masochist for their benefit, but give you little in return, they have a disrespectful/entitled mentality of 'You should just be glad you have a job here' -Pay is sub-par compared to even smaller companies -Working here reminded me of the set of that Terry Gilliam movie 'Brazil' -Almost everyone I worked with here was unhelpful in educating me about the products being made, very little freedom of thought and worse of all, the people are just simply rude

Pros

If you are lazy, this is the place for you

Cons

If you are somewhat competent, don’t worry, management doesn’t care. Employees are part of their politics game. From orders delay to customer complaints, management’s resolutions are to put in more tedious complicated system and lay off actual workers. Constant restructuring every 6 months with no idea what they want. Base pay is below average. Not sure why investors are still investing and why customers are still buying. I would give 0 star if I can.
