Pros

Nice people to work with. You feel like you are part of a team from the minute you start here. Everyone works together to get the job done. I left a former employer that I was with for almost 20 years to come here and felt at home right away.

Cons

My only complaint is that they seem behind the times with their systems. I feel there is a need to take a look at going to a single ERP system soon in the future.

We love to read that you had such a positive experience of our workplace environment from day one. One of our Guiding Principles enforces that “We Win as a Team” and everyone is part of that team. Thank you for being candid about some of the limitations to our systems. We have been actively addressing these limitations and making the necessary updates over the past few years. We will undoubtedly need to continue to do so, as technology for these processes is constantly evolving. If you have any additional feedback or potential solutions, we would love to hear from you. Please reach out directly to MKS.Feedback@mksinst.com.
