Project Engineer/Manager (Former Employee), Royston ECT – February 8, 2013

Prototype Technician (Current Employee), Royston, Hertfordshire – December 30, 2012
Pros: free lunches and all protective clothing provided.
Cons: working in an environment with very little contact with the outside world during working hours
My typical day begins with calculating my daily task. Once this is complete i ensure that it tally's up with exactly what the clients require. I then manufacture the formulations and consult a wide range of management/ team leaders with any potential issues or issues that have developed. I work as a part of a team of around 10-15 co workers and also – more... use their knowledge and pass my knowledge to ensure daily team and personal targets are met. The hardest part of my job is to set my work up to able to me work smoothly throughout the day. The most enjoyable part is to see that what i have manufacture go all the way through to the customer without any problems and in quick time. – less
If you don't know anyone who works there GOOD LUCK!!
Instrumentation technician (Former Employee), Savannah, GA – May 5, 2013
Cons: everything
If you're related to or know someone who works there, you may have a chance. Incredibly low low pay for those who actually work and if you been with the company for 20 years. The electrical and instrumentation department is a joke and good luck having support from supervision as they only care about themselves and how they look.
Maintenance Supervisor (Former Employee), Salt Lake City, UT – March 21, 2013
Pros: safety is a high priority.
Cons: some of the managers make you feel like they are better than you.
Fast pace environment, managment does not seem committed to employees or supervisors. Benifits are excelent, pay is average. Production staff is easy to get along with.
chemical operator (Current Employee), Savannah Ga – March 11, 2013
Pros: lots of overtime
Cons: tell you will what you want to hear to get you to take the job but no raise after 90 days
Good place to work. Good people! The pay is very very very poor! It really sucks. You work straight time for holidays and no shift differential. No vision plan and to much good ole boy treatment.
Fast paced production facilities with great research teams
Process Control Engineer (Former Employee), Wayne, PA – February 24, 2013
Johnson Matthey has an extremely well developed management team. They helped guide me through my career choices and path. Since these are production facilities there were many days where you wouldn't know what you would be walking into. The production managers typically did a very good job of allocating resources and personnel to deal with any issues – more... that arose. I really enjoyed being able to take on my own projects and have the support of my colleagues. – less

Internal quality controller and auditor (Former Employee), Germiston, Johannesburg – June 26, 2012
Pros: exposure to world class standards in the running of business
Cons: shift work
A typical day at work started with developing a plan for the day after handover. I learned a lot on production and quality management as well as the importance of teamwork and communication. The hardest part of the job was managing disagreements with production staff over inconsistency in the quality of products.The most enjoyable part of the job include – more... amongst others the culture of working as a collective, and the development opportunities that were available. – less
