Pros

MKS is an extremely well-run company that really cares about getting better every year. Everything’s not perfect, but things that have issues get attention and eventually get worked out. They take good care of employees, customers, and suppliers. I’ve been at a number of companies in my career and MKS is by far the best in almost every aspect.

Cons

The company still has some old-school processes, but fewer each year.

It is great to hear that some of our Guiding Principles of collaboration and respect were reflected in the team culture you experienced. We agree that it is unfortunate that Covid resulted in the need to minimize in-person interactions. Everyone has felt the negative impact of Covid, but we hope you have appreciated the company’s efforts to maintain a sense of community and open communication throughout this unprecedented time.
