Pros
An excellent, eponymous company that are greatly respected within their industry. A professional and friendly company that repeatedly demonstrates it commitment to all employees in terms of professional development, equality, and opportunities.
Cons
Some systems and processes feel a little outdated. I think this is typical of established companies. However, lots of change has already begun and I am confident improvements will be made soon.

Pros
They pay you for working there The view is good if you work in an office Tea and coffee are free for manufacturing staff You get a bacon roll sometimes
Cons
Too much time spent on superficial and irrelevant activities. Top heavy management especially at Group level. Micromanagement. The company used to care, now it just has a policy which states that it cares. Leadership and immediate reports with nothing to do and no ability or understanding, trying to justify their existence creating a massive workload for those who have too much to do already. Ageism is rife. People with practical ability are not valued. Spreadsheet jockeys and bean counters rule. Wages are barely above the minimum legally permitted unless of course you work in an office or are on the senior leadership team. Culture of overwork. Good performance is rarely recognised in the case of people who really deserve it. Senior leadership and some elements of HR take credit for the efforts of others and create excessive workload including for those within HR. Sales department is aggressive with Engineering and Production and do not understand about the practical difficulties involved in designing and building products. Senior leadership keeps recruiting spreadsheet jockeys in its own image. They don't understand anything else and they certainly don't understand the business of test and measurement. Manufacturing and Engineering are frequently put in the impossible position of having to resolve the consequences of poor decisions made by group directors. Decent people have been forced out and replaced by patronising, platitudinal and cliche wielding non-entities. "It's a journey", " How did that make you feel?", "Company Values"!, "We are Caring!!!!!", " We are Captivating"- A notable success- it feels like a prison. There are exceptions but they are being thinned out. It has turned into a cult. No push back is allowed. Big Brother rules. Quote- "You're either on the bus or you're not" CEO circa 2018 Empty vessels make the most noise. And there is plenty of noise.

Pros
Within my role, many would automatically assume I would just write pros, which I do have, not just because of my job. Working for Megger is like working for a family business, big enough to develop and contribute and small enough to make a difference. Our aim is to attract talented individuals and people whom are enthusiastic, friendly and have a can do attitude. An excellent company to come and work for, if looking for a great company, but also if you have career aspirations or looking at developing your skills. Many initiatives in the pipeline to make us even greater, such as our new Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy, ensuring equality for all. We have a newly created bonus structure for many of the workforce and even an additional day off for your birthday. We are always looking at ways to improve.
Cons
Lot's of ideas and initiatives and want to do them all at once :)

Thank you for your review, unsure if you have the correct company as Megger design and manufacture electrical test equipment, we do not design bits for planes. Should you be looking at Meggit!
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
It's a very accepting company, with colleagues from all over the world and with very different personalities, but all accepting of one another. Everyone I have worked with has been friendly, enthusiastic and supportive. Over the years since I have been working for Megger, I've seen huge positive changes across the board and mostly with the work/life balance, the benefits, the culture and values and the attitudes of the staff. It wasn't great a few years ago, but now I'd be happy to recommend Megger as a place to work. One of the perks is our new flexible working policy. When I recently had to move away from the area due to personal circumstances, I was able to use this to be able to work remotely and periodically travel back to the office when needed. In the past year, there has been a huge drive to help the community and to celebrate achievement, both of which have been successful and have led to more positive attitudes among staff. That aside, on a personal note, I am very proud to be working for a STEM company. I get some pride in knowing that our products are important - they help keep workers safe and keep our society supplied with power.
Cons
Not a lot of career progression opportunities for some roles. Training opportunities are available, but they can be limited. The Dover building itself is barely fit for purpose - however there are plans to improve this and these are already in the works.
