Billerica, MA

Current Employee – been working at Entegris as a contractor for more than 3 years

ProsFriendly environment and safety issues above standard industry average

ConsIf hired as a temp the best choice is to find another alternative because this company takes 2+ years before they hire you for permanent position, no matter how best you work and sacrifice yourself for the good of the company

Advice to Senior Managementgive your employees and temporary associates more opportunities, growth starts from within.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Fremont, CA

Current Employee – been working at Entegris full-time for more than 10 years

ProsStrong marketshare position in the market

ConsSimilar to the industry, people are not even a partial focus of this company . Entegris is driven by a conservative financial model, which is the basis and justification of all decisions. Organization is very flat, resulting in very limited opportunities for career growth .

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Entegris

ProsMost co workers are trying to make a difference. Most co workers are trying to help each other. Some managers are trying to steer the behemoth in the right direction.

ConsFor the readers to vote on.......

Board holds management feet to fire, or it is a Good Old boy's network?
Management is Tactical or Strategic?
Mini BUs / Silos have created efficiencies or created inefficiencies and loss of cohesion?
In an election, would you vote to keep majority of directors, VPs, GM, C level executives, or oust them?
If you were a hiring manager, would you hire majority of the management on your team?
Is the company a collection of mini BU's doing their own thing or is ita genuinely 1 Billion dollar company?
Are beenies like stock awards being confined at too hogh a level, do all desserving people get them?

Advice to Senior ManagementAsk the peole at Entegris - they have the answers.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Entegris

ProsCommunication with management and an overall great work environment. Low stress.

ConsMundane projects and a Helpdesk that isn't very helpful. Helpdesk moved overseas and the user experience with IT has suffered. Causing the usual qualms between regular users and IT.

Advice to Senior ManagementCommunication on company growth and the future of the company as a whole. Often it feels like the roller coaster ride of the stock market controls everything at the company.

Former Employee – worked at Entegris

ProsThe salary was competitive and there were many challenges to overcome. The health benefits were fair.

ConsThe company continues to lose revenue and jobs. People are constantly afraid of the next layoff. They senior managers get big stock blocks of options and the rest of the workforce gets a pink slip.

Advice to Senior ManagementBe willing to step up and guarantee some type of long term employment to your people. Yes, not job is permanent any more but with so many layoffs, the rank n file has lost faith in you.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
