W. R. Grace & Co. reviews

Retirement match cut by 30% in June 2025. Zero flexibility with work schedules. In office work required even for those that were hired specifically to work remotely. Not filling open positions, forcing more work on high performers with no benefit. Management does not care about work life balance or supporting employees where they are in their lives. I.e.) Adoption, medical issues, small children, etc. Long standing employees are leaving or looking to leave. There is no reward for extra effort. Grace only wants sacrifice from their employees. They are eliminating all reasons that made Grace a great place to work. They are content with being mediocre. Management directed talent moves results in jobs not being posted and individuals losing the ability to make career decisions for themselves.

Since being bought by Standard Industries, Grace has been on a steady downward trajectory. The company went through a very poorly planned reorganization in 2022, which crushed employee morale; and now is reducing retirement benefits by 30% so that the owners of Standard Industries can fly in nicer jets?? The long term effect of this strategy will be increased flight of capable professionals to companies with industry-competitive benefits.
