Entegris reviews

Terrible work/life balance Forced overtime to compensate for company mistakes and lack of skilled employees No formal training system Terrible pay rates Take advantage of employees No appreciation for employees HORRIBLE management Very unorganized company Preach a value system but don't stick to it for lesser employees Lack of career development No goal setting for growth High turnover rates for employees Blame lesser employees for engineering mistakes

The process of Entegris obtaining a small conglomerate of specialty chemical companies 2 years ago seems to have left many things to be desired. understaffed, and management that has been installed often has an incompetent level of understanding as to how to make these small companies grow and succeed as they did before the Entegris acquisition. day-to-day work environment is very healthy and flexible but I (and many others in my boat) are left feeling that the corporation as a whole is unyielding in the attempt to make these very small, unique business they have acquired conform with the global Entegris production models and standards. Those standards work very well in the semi-conductor field, but the beuracracy resulting from them, and the lack of compatibility in integration to our very different buisness model,, creates a scenario where the blind are leading the blind, and real potential for progress is frozen in limbo, in lieu of red tape and quality management standards that do not relate well to the nature of our business; a mismatch I would call it- plain and simple.
