Thank you for providing your thoughts on the company. I am glad to read that you are learning a lot through cross-training and are flourishing in a collaborative culture. That is great! Effective communication is a high priority for us, so we would like to further understand where we could improve. You also mentioned a concern about the local management. We recently launched an engagement survey which gives us better insight into workplace culture and management capabilities. We hope the results will help identify areas where we can improve. You can also reach out to us directly at: MKS.Feedback@mksinst.com to discuss your concerns. We will continue to remain strong with our Covid-19 protocols. The safety of our employees remains our number one priority.

Pros

Great compensation, and collaborative work environment. Having the ability to work remotely during Covid, and frequent updates from managers made the experience less stressful. Projects are demanding, but offer good opportunities to move into different roles.

Cons

401K is a 50% match, would like to see that go to 100% match at 6%.

Thank you for your response. I am glad to read you have had so many positive experiences to share. We are proud of our Covid-19 communications and how our managers have led during the pandemic. We are thankful that you have been able to successfully work remotely during this time. If you prefer a remote workspace, you do have the option to take advantage of our telecommuting policy once we return to the office. You can discuss this with your manager or HR. We appreciate your feedback about the 401K match. Planning for your retirement is important. We continue to evaluate our comprehensive benefits to ensure they are appropriately aligned to the market along with the needs of the business and our employees. Feel free to reach out to us at MKS.Feedback@mksinst.comif you have any questions or concerns.
