Pros

They match 6% for 401k

Cons

Management treats hourly employees like first graders. Remember having to raise your hand to use the toilet in elementary school? It's kind of like that there. Some managers bring a dark cloud with them to work and Waters Corp loves them. They threaten employees. If you are out sick they, demand you work Saturday to make up the time. Saturdays are overtime, but they expect you to work it straight time. They did this to me. Operators are walking on eggshells. They are afraid to say anything. It is a horrible atmosphere there. And if a operator does say anything, forget it, their career there is over. They are very vindictive. If you are a brown-nosing bootlicker, who wants to be degraded into submission, then this company is for you.

Great coworkers who truly care about putting best foot forward and great technology.

Cons

Compensation has not kept pace with inflation, making it difficult to feel rewarded despite strong performance. * Career progression lacks transparency. Advancement opportunities are limited, and there are no clearly defined milestones or timelines for promotion in some functions. * Organizational priorities and direction frequently change, making it difficult to execute long-term strategies. Communication from senior leadership can feel disconnected from the realities of frontline employees. * The company has become increasingly top-heavy, with decisions often taking a long time to reach the people responsible for execution. * Incentive structures have become less competitive over time, which has negatively affected motivation and retention
