Research the company thoroughly especially if there has been an acquisition.

Quality assurance

Business Outlook

Pros

Reach out to corporate HR and management to find international opportunities if you share the larger company’s vision.

Cons

No HR present at facility, most of managers were present through acquisitions from small company to larger company so management has small company way of conducting business and have not adapted to larger company. It’s better to be hired in as a permanent to receive fair benefits and compensation package. New rules under larger company policies threatens job security of employees hired before acquisition.

Packaging supervisor on first shift on small bottle has no respect for anyone but his favorites. Very toxic environment, no opportunities given to other employees but his favorites. His coordinator is very racist and even more toxic than himself.

Pros

Used to be great when Millipore was not in the picture. Solid company, great coworkers, benefits e.t.c.

Cons

When Sigma was sold to Merck, and Boston-based Millipore was chosen to be it’s North American headquarters, all hell broke loose. Whoever chose to stay to the bitter end, earned the severance packages by being severely ignored and mistreated by the Millipore based management. They didn’t treat us as coworkers, but as competitors. Did I mention that they were clueless? Being ones a company many times smaller and inferior to Sigma, they didn’t know how to manage such a big and sophisticated structure. They knew it too, and we were the scapegoats. It was very painful to watch our ones great company being rundown and mismanaged by incapable and insecure people.
