A scary place to work for - Office (UK) Molecular Devices Employee Review

Pros

Lots of lovely people at the UK office

Cons

EU sales management is very number driven, managers have no connection with the staff, many delete management emails before reading. Promoting and territory/product reshuffling is happening only on the top level while there have been very few promotion opportunities for the personal contributors. Managers are massaging each others egos and looking to other associates from the above. HR is cashing on any success, self promoting low level interaction. No management at the office even HR is often working from home. You are given a development objective not for helping you to grow professionally but for delegating extra work which is not always helpful and is never rewarded. Office furniture is very old (UK office), managers get what they like for their home offices but for the office based associates they would do very basic. People stay because of the opportunity to earn but the morale in most of the teams is low.

Pros

Don’t have any to share.

Cons

One of the worst companies to work for. Poor management- only chasing revenue numbers, lack of sympathy, lack of respect. So many people including VPs and Sr directors have left recently. That should tell you a lot about rotten organization. Compensation isn’t as competitive as other companies either. Very rigid structure.
