Momentive Performance Materials reviews

The good employees are vastly outnumbered by bad ones who are just there for a paycheck, know nothing about how to properly run a business, know nothing about encouraging peers who have a passion for Momentive's success, and move slower than seems humanly possible. Also, there is a lot of favoritism (some workers leave early EVERY day and take every Friday off) and there are a lot of contractors who are treated like sub-humans.

-A lot of employees are there for a paycheck and don't do their job and continue to live off GE's dole. -No forward thinking and our market shares are showing it. -Road block innovation by having their scientist/engineers do all the commercial and marketing data BEFORE they can work on their ideas. -little to no promotion -lack of a willingness to change from "The good 'ole days" of being GE -Vacation is non-existent unless you've been there for over 10 years (2 weeks for 5 years, 3 weeks till 10 years, and then 4 weeks max) -profit sharing is laughable due to lack of direction from upper management and ridiculous goals that are un-achievable. -Commercial team is lazy and wont do their job of finding new and potential markets and gets upset when innovative ideas are brought up. -Facilities are ancient and roofs are leaking everywhere -preventative maintenance is a bad word in Manufacturing. Instead, they cut corners to save a dime, but in the end it cost them customers, and several million dollars in products -EHS in manufacturing is lazy and doesn't know much about regulations except what has been put in front of them and expects the R&D group to make the changes needed instead of manufacturing doing it.
