Pros

Some decent benefits. Great employees. Nice facilities.

Cons

Manipulative, bully boy leadership where being constructively open, honest and transparent is not appreciated nor welcomed. Management and employees are bullied into submission by oppressive senior leadership who are unimpressed and no receptive to honest feedback, whilst pretending to be something they are not! Many staff hold on due to team camaraderie and the knowledge of what they are all dealing with and just accept taking there turn at being the target! Step out of line you may find yourself being bullied in the workplace. Proceed with care.

Pros

Friendly coworkers, lots of holidays off, year end shutdown.

Cons

Low pay. Lots of office politics. Your merit increase is based on how well you are liked - not how well you perform. If you don’t fit the Swagelok mold you will have a hard time advancing. It’s almost looked down upon to be an external hire.
