Pros

I no longer work for them.

Cons

I worked for small company that was bought out by them in early 2021. They stated nothing would be done for at least a year and within 5 months were doing layoffs. Did first set of furloughs right at Christmas and then another set with a lot of same people in March 2022. This company was very profitable and successful globally until Ametek took over. They started making our biggest customers angry because Ametek didn’t want to have project orders in house because of margins being smaller. Those project orders were what kept work steady for us to keep it all rolling why we got non projects in house with bigger margins. They also failed to factor in when they stopped doing the projects we lost a lot of our non project large margin work because of how it was handled. They never seemed interested in continuing the success of our organization, and lied about how it all would be handled the entire way.

Pros

lots of interesting products (came by acquisitions)

Cons

The executive office is only focussed on the stock market. …they effectively do a great job for the value of the share. Beyond that they are not inspiring, do not care about customers, the environment, people development …or any other values that a company may have. It is just a cash machine to make acquisitions and squeeze more cash. !

Pros

It is wonderful to part of the Ametek family where they treat you like the professional you want to be. The people I’ve met are helpful, selfless and everyone seems to have great attitude. The productivity goals are not unattainable, and you get the support to make things happen. They have shown me that a work/life balance is important, and I highly recommend working with Ametek

Cons

The company has been around a long time, and we have may products in different business sectors. It’s a big ship and sometimes can be difficult to effect change as fast as you might like.
