Johnson Matthey reviews

Used to be a family type place who cared about people. Now just a numbers game. the new CEO, Robert McLeod has grand visions. His first major decision as CEO was the worst one, "install SAP" what I call "fools gold". 4 years later and still not one successful installation at one site. Millions invested. So now he has to cut costs so he is bleeding every place dry and squeezing everything to the minimum. Moved to a matrix and brought in high level people from the outside who don't understand the business and don't care about people. Such a waste.

Do not expect to grow or move around this company. The majority of people who work here are generally nice people and mean well, but will throw you under the bus to save their own skin at any cost. Safety is at the bottom of the list for this company's values. They may preach they are safe and care about safety, but don't be fooled. More tenured employees with 7-10 years of employment can get away with just about anything, so the real work and production falls onto the new underpaid employees. Management hires supervisors and managers who lack any sort of relevant experience needed to perform or troubleshoot in relative environments. Also to note, the union is a joke. Upper management has pulls and ties with the ability to divide the union and get anything they want from union committee. Management will take everything away they possibly can while the union sits back and watches. Anyone who speaks up will generally be ousted and left on the street looking for another job. This is not a real union shop and you have no job security whatsoever.
