Pros

As part of Koch Industries, which is a privately-held company, Molex has a long term vision and objectives, and is not focused on short-term quarterly reporting to shareholders. Molex enables employees to use and develop their individual strengths to the benefit of the overall organization, rather than trying to force everybody into a standardized job role. Molex enables employees to move to completely new roles and new areas of the organization, or indeed to other Koch companies. The focus is on ensuring that talented employees find the area where they can create the most value for the company, and that they remain within the organization.

Cons

In some countries, Molex has a significant number of employees. But in many countries, Molex has only a relatively small physical presence, meaning that the possibilities for working physically side-by-side with colleagues in the same office are sometimes quite limited. But the opposite side to this is that remote working is very much accepted, and many roles are open to you irrespective of where you actually live.

Thank for all your hard work and dedication at Molex for the past 20+ years. We agree, allowing employees to explore areas (whether within Molex or other Koch companies) where they are able bring their unique gifts provides fulfillment to the employee and in turn, a positive contribution to the company. We encourage all our employees to share their ideas with their supervisor, or HR contact. Please know I’ve passed this feedback along to the appropriate leadership teams. Wishing you all the best, Cali from Talent Solutions

Pros

Molex is a great community. There are a wide variety of professional employees to network with. It is a very large company, but a small community.

Cons

Decisions from upper management, do not always trickle down through the organization. Not all of the departments follow the same guidelines. Case in point is remote working. different groups have different allowances. It is a small thing, but an area that could improve.

Pros

Benefits are very good for a company this size

Cons

Team is run based on last minute requests and on a lot of meetings to join leaving little time for your usual work. Director likes to devise “innovative” ways to get sales to give more information but instead it translates to chaotic management and more stress for demand planners. There are a lot of stress placed on leads for not getting their teams to get to unrealistic goals with an unsupportive sales team. There are hardly any consistent reviews for employees but it’s not unusual for employees themselves in PIPs. Overall I would say it’s a chaotic management style in this team. Pay hits industry average but not much more. Additionally there is an overemphasis on being in the office in this company because they recently invested millions in renovations so they track your badge swipes. There are really no company wide events to get people more unified other than a quarterly CEO town hall that managers force everyone to attend.
