AMETEK reviews

The BU I work for was told many things when we were purchased by Ametek. Many of those things were lies. Multiple layoffs/terminations. Zero communication from upper management. Employees are not valued by company at all.

AMETEK now owns SCI and has brought many of the downsides of being a publicly traded company. Many decisions revolve solely around making monthly, quarterly, and annual profit and margin projections. This often seems short-sighted and can be frustrating to many within the company. Additionally, the culture of the company can feel washed, subdued, or even non-existent, by the continual near-obsessive focus on meeting the numbers. That being said, AMETEK does a very good job at delivering increased profits to their shareholders. So while it can be frustrating from an employee perspective, it can be difficult to be too critical of their approach given the results.
