still an immature company

Pros

after 3 years, the management has been changed enough that the lower employees finally are getting recognition...

Cons

there is still a first come first serve attitude... if you are grandfathered in you are well to do but, new employees are getting stuck with low pay and inability to advance until the older employees retire...

Pros

- Great working level co-workers - Legacy silicone business - Some good product offerings - Recent purchase could good for company

Cons

- Burdened with a lot of investment need because of years of GE neglect. -Apollo paid too much for company and could not justify enough follow-on investment during their ownership tenure. - Competition has been continuing to improve their cost position and it's tough for MPM to catch back up.
