Pros

Good people, good benefits, friendly upper management that are not afraid to communicate and interact with the people. There are no ivory towers here and Martin will often talk with anyone willing to have a conversation with him, which is refreshing and rare. This was the most professional place I’ve ever worked with good training that provided me the skills I needed to be successful outside of this company.

Cons

This is a good old boys club that very rarely promotes women and even more rarely puts them in a position to be successful. There are a lot of politics here, more than anywhere I’ve ever worked. If you aren’t one of the chosen ones you will never get promoted. Mid level managers tend to be extremely arrogant and difficult to work with. Pay is not competitive. This company used to be all about family and their employees and that has also changed. Be prepared to work like a dog and not get compensated well unless you are an executive or happen to leave the company and come back.

Pros

Great people, excellent benefits and perks.

Cons

Salaries lagging. Making same base salary as 8 years ago at a different employer. Work load is very high. No opportunity for technical training. Spending money for necessary equipment is like pulling teeth. Zero realistic opportunity for advancement. Management cares only about there betterment, not that of the employees. They seem to have an easy come easy go attitude toward retention of employees.

Pros

Molex is a very stable and well run company. The work is challenging and there is plenty of opportunity to move positions and advance. Perhaps the best part of Molex is that the people form a great community.

Cons

Molex can be a very dynamic environment to work in because we run a very lean ship which requires people to learn and practice a large variety of skills.
