Videojet Technologies reviews

Insane expectations, long hours, very little appreciation for going above and beyond. Working with people around the world, I understand it makes sense to work outside of 9-5, but there is no consideration for that flex. So, if your day starts at 5am in the US because you are meeting with someone in China, your day still ends at 5pm (if you're lucky). I was there for two years and worked with three different Presidents. There was a lot of politics and maneuvering going on behind that scenes that made me question if I could trust my manager and their manager. There were multiple layoffs while I was there, and it seemed like the company was doing fine financially. Videojet was a talent supply source for Danaher when I was there, so a lot of people are looking for a big win so they can move on to bigger and better things elsewhere in Danaher. They have since been spun off into a separate company, so maybe that has improved.

Zero career progression, field service promotions carry zero weight, metrics change yearly, no clear path to achieving promotions or increased pay. This is a position that will require constant growth and more work on a yearly basis, with zero raises that even somewhat account for the increased responsibility/work. Bonus structure is constantly revised to limit success, it’s a maintain or lose bonus system, zero chance of actually leveraging the bonus structure to increase pay. If anything the bonus is weaponized to compel the field engineers to comply with completely out of touch metrics.
