Morgan Crucible Reviews

Pros

I'm just about to start in the Carbon division, and am very happy with the company's treatment of me thus far.
Morgan has been through a lot of restructuring over the last few years to get themselves out of major trouble, and are now aiming at strategic, steady growth. Although not yet an insider, so far they've delivered on their promises.

Cons

Haven't experienced any yet - I will update this review as my employment journey continues.
That's why so many of my scores are 'average' - I don't have experience to back it up!

Advice to Senior Management

All I know so far is my boss - and I'd say keep up the good work!

Pros

With such a high turnover rate, there are always plenty of openings.

Cons

The pay scale is low beyond belief, many years outdated. Management refuses to believe this, instead relying on a reviewing company which has no real idea what kind of work is being done or what other companies to compare the jobs to. Being out in the production area is a very dirty job, no way to really avoid that when working with ceramics. The very air is even filled not only with silica dust but water-soluable oil, which I do not believe can be healthy to breathe. The benefits package is on the very low side of barely standard.
However, the worst part of working there is that any person who doesn't bow towards the Plant Manager's office and swear that this is the bestest place in the world will be sent packing in short order.

Advice to Senior Management

Stop listening to HR when they tell you your pay scale is up to date. Look instead at your turnover rate, and ask HR why they never inquire as to why people are leaving. I made more money in my first job in this industry, and that was in 1994!
