Pros

Middle management is great and does a good job of making sure you know your daily task expectations while trying to give you opportunities to grow. Tries very hard to give good work life balance within reason. Teammates are hard working and great to work with. Benefits are pretty standard but good.

Cons

Not much opportunity for growth unless you want to take on more responsibilities without a pay increase. Company focuses too hard on SMART goals without there being much reward or payoff for completed goals. Upper management gets boatloads of stocks that make them very rich if they sell while us working folks get nothing. Raises are annual cost of living increases and not merit based.

Pros

Good, dedicated people at most sites. Lots of "career opportunities" due to high turnover creating a constant stream of openings.

Cons

1. Terrible leadership and management 2. Constant cost cutting without thinking about the ramifications 3. Continual acquisitions that don't get integrated properly before the next acquisition. This leads to a chaotic organization that is constantly changing. It also sparks a catastrophic clash of systems as Entegris tries to force everything into SAP in less than 12 months, regardless of the size of the company they have purchased. 4. This acquisition strategy makes the financial numbers look good when buying private companies because no one can evaluate the true synergies that were accomplished. All that is available is the picture after the acquisition, not before. But when they bought CMC, a public company, they clearly destroyed shareholder value that existed when the companies were valued separately.
