TTM Technologies Reviews

Former Employee – worked at TTM Technologies full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – Easy work, some room to advance (though don't expect advancing into carpetland, just on the floor advancement), fairly well organized, co-workers were for the most part friendly.

Cons – Work could get a little boring, depending on the job. Wages could be better, and raises are almost not worth your time. Most importantly, employees are treated like garbage. They could care less how long you have been there or how good a worker you are. Any opportunity to flex their superior supervisory muscles and they jump at the chance with threats. "Everybody is replaceable" was specifically said at on meeting. I don't know about you, but I refuse to work for somebody who feels that way.

Advice to Senior Management – Start treating employees with respect. Be a little more flexible once in a while for those who are on mandatory overtime, especially the mandatory weekends. I mostly enjoyed my job, but I was tired of being pushed around and treated like a nobody. A bit more respect and a small wage increase and this is otherwise a 5 star company.

Former Employee – worked at TTM Technologies full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – There is nothing good about working for this company

Cons – This company expected us to work 30+ hours overtime, then laid people off because we made too much money. They also drove my plant into the ground. They sent 100+ jobs to China. They took any order worth any money and gave it to Santa Ana. We were then given all the junk Santa Ana did not want to build. One Santa Ana employee was allowed to make changes to computers which took down 5+ other departments and that was ok with management.

Advice to Senior Management – Entire board should be replaced for mismanagement.

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

Former Employee – worked at TTM Technologies full-time for more than a year

Pros – Expect 8-5 hours. Good learning experience if you have an interest in that electronics. The santa ana division was always safe from layoff fevers.

Cons – Was very underworked, you can only browse the web for so much. The company is extremely corporate, meaning unless you're a manager, you're a 2nd class citizen. No room for growth. Come here for a job, go somewhere else for a career.

Advice to Senior Management – stop allowing people who have no business making big IT decisions make them. Just because they're a buddy from the company that was acquired, or you thought your secretary had a great idea doesn't make it acceptable.

Current Employee – been working at TTM Technologies

Pros – it was closed to my house. it was a relax working environment. everyone was friendly, and easy to work with

Cons – supervisors and managers were not good enough to lead workers. Some departments was so easy to let employees work overtime with no product

Advice to Senior Management – More strictly on overtime hours, make sure no people allow to show up for overtime if they had no approved

Current Employee – been working at TTM Technologies

Pros – TTM offers good pay and is led by mgmt who knows how to achieve profitability in a difficult market. They have an annual sales conference that is pretty entertaining and offers employees a chance to mingle and learn about the latest product developments.

Cons – Middle management is poor and company mentality is not customer service focused. The company is always right and never willing to be flexible for customers. TTM typically prices their products higher then the competition so it is not always easy to secure business in this very price competitive market. Asian markets are really hurting the big North American PCB shops.

Advice to Senior Management – Put the customer first! Offer better development tools to your sales people. Keep a close eye on middle level mgmt.

Current Employee – been working at TTM Technologies

Pros – Friendly environement, the work or the job profile was fantastic and challenges were faced on regular basis. Great place to work with challenges.

Cons – Timing does not suits because at times they ask you to come at 10pm and then again the very next afternoon.

Advice to Senior Management – Leadership was good in terms of official purpose but not that much good in terms of personal reasons. Hence it is a moderate company to work.

Former Employee – worked at TTM Technologies

Pros – It was one of the best facilities to work in. it is null and void now because of closure of facility.

Cons – there really isn't much. sometimes, II wished they had put out more formal skills training (state / national recognized certs) that can be used elsewhere.

Advice to Senior Management – closing the place is a big mistake. Your competition loves you and you will most likely lose some customers because of it
