Pros

Great products and growing markets with growing company that is industry leader in the energy cable and fiber optic cable markets.

Cons

Very long hours, management team is a revolving door of international people who don't know about how things are done. Bonuses are reserved for the very senior people. Salary increases for all others do not keep up with inflation. Management usually looks out for itself and not the employees.

Pros

Fair medical benefits Work can offer challenges Decent leadership program for young leaders A few strong leaders who focus on building people

Cons

Generally leadership is autocratic and demeaning to subordinates Leadership style is one of threats and ultimatums Very high hourly turnover Training is the most important and least supported element of the corporate strategy Safety does not appear to be a top priority Work-life balance in many instances is non-existent

Pros

Pay is good if you're in the office environment. Benefits are good as well. And being a global corporation, if circumstances work out well then the sky is the limit with where you can go in the company.

Cons

It's a global corporation and you're kind of a number. You can work really hard, lots of hours, and make great accomplishments and it might not amount to anything. The people they tend to be harshest with are the ones who typically work the hardest. Office politics are terrible here as well.

Thank you for your review of Prysmian Group, and your time working with our team in Schuylkill Haven, PA. I’m happy to hear you feel our compensation and benefits package is competitive, as well as the global opportunities we provide our employees. One of our core values is integrity, and we are committed to the success of every individual throughout the organization. Despite your positive impression of your personal experience, it’s unfortunate that you would not recommend others to join our team at Prysmian. It is a challenging, dynamic, progressive environment, and your comments are a great reminder that we can always be doing more to ensure each voice is heard, top performers are recognized, and career development remains a priority. My hope is that as we continue to act on comments like yours, the changes we implement will help you and others have a more positive outlook on the company. Thanks again, and I will make sure that all your feedback is communicated to the leadership team.
