Toxic atmosphere, no room for growth The atmosphere is absolutely toxic. The management treats employees as if they are doing them a favor by keeping them employed. The overall consensus among employees is that Sigma purposefully mistreats employees in fear that employees may mistake kindness for weakness and take advantage of the company. Sigma is also miserly when it comes to things as minute as providing small rewards throughout the year (like lunches, or holiday gifts), to as large as recognizing employees for milestones like 5, 10, 15 or 20 years. They do absolutely nothing for these milestones! One employee reported getting a 2.5% raise instead of a 2% raise at a large benchmark in their career. There is a lot of nepotism- a handful of favored employees are heavily rewarded and moved up to positions they are unqualified for, while the rest of the 95% of the company suffers. I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone, Sigma has lost most of its best scientists and engineers due to poor upper management.
