Vantaggi

Passionate and motivated co-workers (for the most part), leadership and development opportunities, strong brand equity.

Svantaggi

Lack of leadership and vision, driven by top line growth coupled with short sighted decisions and lack of empathy towards employees. The company does a great job selling itself during the interview process and I believe HR genuinely tries to implement meaningful programs to make it a better place to work but at the end of the day, monthly and quarterly sales numbers are #1 - no matter what the cost. After the Eaton acquisition, you heard almost daily how great an employer Eaton is to its employees, I never experienced that at this division.

Vantaggi

whelp, their hiring. So if you're looking for an entry level position, they've got them open

Svantaggi

Where do I start? If your goal is to make a tangible impact, change things for the better, or grow a modern career, look elsewhere. Stifling Red Tape: The company is drowning in administrative bloat and ancient, worn-out processes. It is nearly impossible to implement meaningful improvements because every minor change is strangled by bureaucracy. The organization simply lacks the capability to scale effectively. (They still haven't fully implemented Bussman, who they acquired more than a decade ago) Short-Sighted Leadership: Upper management is entirely hyper-focused on hitting short-term quarterly metrics at all costs, completely sacrificing long-term strategy and sustainable operational health. Subpar Compensation & Benefits: The base salary is hardly competitive with the current market. The benefits package is remarkably weak—health insurance options are disappointing, and you start with a meager two weeks of vacation. Zero Performance Incentive: There is no financial upside for regular engineers. Bonus potential is completely locked away until you reach a "manager of managers" level, leaving the actual individual contributors with no skin in the game. If you are a paper-pusher who thrives in a rigid, stagnant environment, you will love it here. If you want to build the future, go somewhere else.
