Good place to work. - Anonymous employee AMRESCO Employee Review

We certainly appreciate it when our current associates are learning new skills and enjoying working with us.

Starting in December, 2015 we began a process of merging six older, smaller buildings into one, big, newer building. So far, four buildings have been completely decommissioned. With most departments now located in a single building, many more associates, many of them long-term employees, enjoy the synergies, cross-training, and transfer opportunities - even to other VWR sites besides AMRESCO/VWR Solon. Employees are recognized in a number of ways, including the VWR recognition program for associates on their 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, etc anniversaries. Associates choose gifts from a catalog, get a certificate, and are recognized in their department - a different process from our annual luncheon that recognized people at their 5 year anniversary intervals. We continue to have the VWR President's Club, and various local employee-nominated recognition programs that come with cash and prizes. While we certainly want leaders to recognize associates, the associates themselves are encouraged to recognize their peers. We were very fortunate that a local pharma company closed its doors a few years ago and a lot of great talent became available for us to hire, at a time when we had openings due to new business and growth. Long term employees who had kept pace with developing their own skills, continuing their education, and learning new processes associated with new business and increased regulatory demands, have continued to excel and be promoted. Our integration with the VWR Recruitment Center, VWR HR policies, benefits, LMS, and HRIS, also included new job titles and descriptions for just about everyone in the company.
