Pros

Great Team and Supportive Colleagues: Even though there are issues with pay and career growth, I’ve been lucky to work with a fantastic team. The supportive and friendly colleagues have made the job much more enjoyable and created a really positive and collaborative work environment.

Cons

I’ve been at Momentive for 2 years; the low pay and lack of advancement opportunities have been real problems. Pay: Momentive doesn’t pay as much as other companies in the industry. Even though they promised a competitive salary when I joined, I quickly found out that my pay was lower than others in similar roles. The raises I’ve received have been pretty small and haven’t kept up with my growing responsibilities or the rising cost of living. This has led to a lot of frustration among employees. Career Progression: Instead of focusing on employee training and growth, Momentive seems more concerned with saving money. There aren’t many chances to advance or get promoted, which makes it hard to move up within the company. This stagnation can be really disheartening for those of us who want to build our careers.

Pros

I'm one week into my journey at Momentive Performance Materials, and I couldn't be happier with how things have started. The onboarding process has been incredibly smooth—well-organized, supportive, and thoughtfully paced. I’ve transitioned from my previous role without feeling overwhelmed or anxious, which speaks volumes about the culture here. The corporate HQ is a fantastic place to work. My desk setup is comfortable and well-equipped, and the environment is clean, modern, and welcoming. Everyone I've met so far has been warm, friendly, and genuinely helpful. There's a real sense of community and collaboration. Bonus points for the cafeteria—it offers good food and a nice space to recharge during the day. Overall, I’m excited about what’s ahead and feel confident I’ve joined a company that values its people and sets them up for success.

Cons

Coming from a hybrid work environment, I initially had some hesitation about being on-site five days a week. However, it’s actually been a refreshing change. Being at corporate HQ has helped me build relationships faster, get face time with colleagues, and feel more connected to the company culture. The workspace is comfortable, the people are welcoming, and the cafeteria is a great perk—it’s made the transition smoother than I expected.
