Pros

They make an excellent product. The pay is good, and you can negotiate a good vacation package. Health/401K benefits are mediocre. - TIP: They have a hard time getting applicants in IS, so don't undersell yourself on pay or vacation!

Cons

This is the place for you if you want to work somewhere that has: - no diversity at all at the management level (i.e. 100% all white males) in departments where other companies typically have 30 - 50% women, and people from other races - serious gender bias issues that are blatantly ignored - an archaic dress code - overworks some, and underworks others - limited opportunities for advancement

Pros

Friendly coworkers, lots of holidays off, year end shutdown.

Cons

Low pay. Lots of office politics. Your merit increase is based on how well you are liked - not how well you perform. If you don’t fit the Swagelok mold you will have a hard time advancing. It’s almost looked down upon to be an external hire.
