Be cautious - Andover and Telford

Pros

Good people and PTO/Flexibility. Benefits are just average and there are no long term incentives like stock options or RSUs.

Cons

No one has been able to solve the Andover problem of getting new product out the door. There's a lack of accountability, and no enough collaboration. PMO and Engineering are constantly battling (in an unhealthy way). The organizational structure is a mess, and there only small pockets of good leadership. HR lost its good talent because leadership didn't act fast enough.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We pride ourselves on our people and work/life balance. We are happy you have enjoyed the culture while working at Dräger however it’s disappointing to hear about your experience in Andover. We have recently made some changes at our Andover location and are excited about the future. We hope the issues you mentioned have been resolved. If not, we take employee feedback seriously and would like to discuss with you further. Please email Draegercares@draeger.com to voice your concerns.

Impressed & disturbed.

Pros

The company offers competitive pay and decent benefits. Im part of a larger team that cares about us and encourages us to apply ourselves. I feel I have lots of freedom but am supported by management. The building is great and commute is easy. We have a gym. Feels like a campus. Communication is constant and we’re encouraged to be entrepreneurs. Feels like a startup at times.

Cons

Time off policy is lousy. Project managers are inconsistent and dont provide reasonable plans. Since I hired we’ve held a lot of planning meetings but no plan has been produced. Too many managers spend their day arguing about metrics but the work remains disorganized. Programmers look frustrated and disengaged from the big picture. Its like they’re a company within the company. Turnover is high there and morale seems low. Managers are very combative. Unsure what manufacturing works on. I have never spoken to anyone from that group.

Pros

Products are good. Pay and benefits are OK.

Cons

Management and planning is terrible. No synergy within the company at all. Terrible work culture with no responsibility or repercussion. They have hired people with no drive to work.
