      Pros

      A privately-held company anxious to avoid press--even positive press--McMaster-Carr is devoted to work-life balance and deeply engaged in the community. As a corporate citizen, McMaster-Carr is truly exemplary and from that perspective would recommend this employer unreservedly. And the perks for employees are superb, including medical benefit vesting on day one.

      Cons

      McMaster-Carr is a very agile organization in which yesterday's rules are almost never carved in stone. The downside to that is because of this relentless devotion to improvement, it can be extremely challenging to learn the ropes for someone new.

      Pros

      Pay, benefits, profit sharing. Tuition reimbursement.

      Cons

      Lack of respect shown to employees by management. They treat people like children. They tend to fire people for no apparent reason, this keeps the rest of us subdued and paranoid. Don't get me wrong, most people who get fired are underperforming. However, it seems like some people get fired randomly for no reason. They pay well and the benefits are great, but that's about it. Hard work means nothing to them. You can work your butt off all year and get a horrible review because your supervisor is a 21 year-old kid with no work experience who wants to practice giving someone a bad review. It happens here. All in all, it pays the bills and the benefits and hours are good. You just have to practice biting your tongue and forget about self-respect once you walk through those doors.
