Pall Corporation
HR Receptionist (Current Employee), Fort Myers, FL – May 17, 2013
Pros: the people
Cons: benefits are paid partial; my site is closing down, and not enough pay.
Typical day in troubleshooting system errors, running HR reports, management of HR data Entry in HCM, Kronos, and DSI. Making badges

I have learned to be more proficient in HCM, Kronos, DSI, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, & Microsoft Publisher. I have also learned to troubleshoot problems that may occur for employees. I have – more... mastered phone skills. I have managed travel for recruits & consultants.

Most of the co-workers are great.

Hardest part of job is managing many tasks and not having enough time to complete them all.

Again the most enjoyable part of the job is the people. – less

Offers advancement if you are willing to put in the time
Manufacturing Associate (Former Employee), Baltimore, MD – April 29, 2013
Overall it's a good place to work but if you're good at what you do and they start asking you to do more, don't expect to be compensated for it. I found that out during the few years I was with the company. I was hired for one position and by the time I left I was doing the work of the shift supervisor and fellow co-workers were treating me as such – more... but never got the recognition from the department supervisor or others in management. – less

Terrible experience toward the end!
Microbiology Lab Analyst (Former Employee), Port Washington, NY – April 2, 2013
Pros: co workers
Cons: commute, management, salary
I was let go after 2 months after being told that the position I was hold was a contract position for 6+ months. I followed the rules, performed exceptionally and they still let me go with even telling me face to face. I had to find out from the agency that they could not "afford to keep me around any more".

Co workers where find just did not like – more... the fact that I did not get a heads up about my having to leave. – less

Company Hires a lot of temps for long assingments
Payroll Administrator Temp (Current Employee), Port Washington, NY – February 11, 2013
General population of the company always seemed like they were always behind in thier deadlines, majority of employees worked from home after hours and on weekends. Definately NO down time- you can easily get burned out.

run on fear
operator (Former Employee), Ilfracombe – December 17, 2012
I worked for the company via an agency, as this is the only route in for an operator job.

I for the most was unhappy at my time at PALL. Training is abysmal, I was sent on the floor, with someone occasionally looking over my shoulder when I first started. The only true development I got was after I made a mistake. Then you get told off and shown what – more... to do.

Favouritism is rife, Holidays are a nightmare to come across if you are not in with the 'in' crowd. Certain staff get what ever they want, way over the top of what been agreed as the daily limit, yet others get constantly turned down.

Health and Safety is quite an issue, In my previous employment I have been an health and safety union rep, so I can say with some education behind me that the health and safety reps on the floor are a token gesture. In fact one such rep said if he complains, he fears he would get a " rubbish" job. Walk ways are blocked quite regularly. Machine wires from the JITS strewn all over the floor begging for someone to be tripped up.

The floors of the clean rooms are a disgrace. Under machinery and any access where you have to move machinery to get to never gets cleaned.

The big ethical gripe is the way they employ the temp agency staff. There are Agency workers that have been there for over 3 years and have not been offered a full term contract. This is not because they a bad at their job, in fact if you sneeze in the wrong direction you are out the door. I find this an immoral way of staffing.

The floor staff are a good bunch, but they seem to cower a lot, as the fear factor in this place of employment is extremely high.

This place truly made me feel unhappy, miserable and not fulfilled. – less

Meme2013 – January 26, 2013

I have to agree with this and feel compelled to add weight. STR is particularly rife with Agency staff not fitting in. I have witnessed incidents and overheard conversations where new agency staff have been discussed like they are a piece of dirt. There have been comments such as "She'll get a text from the Agency on Friday and won't be in on Monday". All because the Agency worker was too quiet or didn't fit in with the crowd.

Field Service Scheduler (Current Employee), Cortland, NY – August 15, 2012
Pros: innovative, pall also listens to its employees concerns.
Cons: pall is a big corporation and as with any corporation, certain things get overlooked or don't get a second look.
Pall has been a strong and positive place to work. I have sharpened my personal and external management skills here as well as learned how to navigate SAP. The employees here at Pall are the most welcoming people I have ever worked with. The hardest part of my job has been transitioning between its ever-changing nature. The most enjoyable part has been – more... the support I have received from its employees. – less

Life at Pall
Laboratory Supervisor (Evening Shift) (Current Employee), Port Washington, NY – August 1, 2012
Coworkers and staff are very friendly. However as of 2012 the company is on an extreme cost cutting spree. No position is safe even if you are a new hire.

Better Off Somewhere Else
Corporate Joe (Former Employee), Port Washington, NY – July 12, 2012
Pros: everyone leaves by 5
Cons: don't expect to ever get promoted there
I am only rating the company a 2 out of 5 as most of my other companies have been far more enjoyable.

The only really good things are that no one works late there and you get the last week in December paid vacation plus 2 weeks per year starting. Otherwise expect only 2% or less raise each year and similar size bonus.

Promotions take 15 years or more – more... to get regardless of how hard you work.

The managers I have been under there were some of the poorest examples of leaders I have seen in my entire 22 year career.

Unless you are just starting right out of college and need to get your feet wet don't bother with this place. – less

Sherm – August 6, 2012

This place is a slave ship with no pay.. They expect you to over come your goals and show no recognition.. There is no way in moving up in this company, less you suck your way up pretty much... New CEO basically got rid of the old board (By either lay-off or force retirement) and brought in his pre-school colleagues.. This is a temp company pretty much all around, so forget about career pursuit.. This is from experience, I work for this company about 5 years and never got a raise besides my yearly percentage (Which is mandatory)... They hire incompetent people for scarps pay and get rid of all their worth keeping employers.. Guess that is why they rank at the bottom of the barrel.. Don't be fooled by paid advertisement, they are really down there.. They are 750 out of 1000 in FORTUNE and they pay scarps.. But the boards get to maintain over 60,000K company paid cars and spent there over seas business meetings in high price condos.. Guess if your a person with no options in life this would be the place for you.. This company would be brought out soon enough for you to remember this post..

Pros: a paycheck
Cons: everything
Horrible place to work. I equate it with serving a prison term. Management beaurocracy does not allow for advancement. Very low pay. Motto of a former manager; "make everyone else look bad to get ahead". That says it all.
