Our Core Values
Work & Family Balance
Machine Tool Research (MTR) understands and values a healthy work-family balance. As an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) company, we all share the responsibility of ensuring we keep this balance. MTR expects hard work and some time away from family as our work includes field service time, but we understand the importance of family time. If an employee owner has a healthy home-life, they are more likely to have a healthy work-life.
Hard Work
The saying goes, “All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads to poverty.” MTR ensures that all hard work is rewarded. With hard work comes pride in the work completed; some of the hardest things in life are the most rewarding.
Reliability
