Vantaggi

Job security - If a steady paycheck is what you're after, look no further. Good intentioned management - I've met very few people that aren't good people down to the core. Good upward mobility - If you work hard, you'll get noticed and promoted. It's not hard to succeed here financially.

Svantaggi

No need for innovation - They are a very mature company with products that will likely sell for decades with little to no change. This results in little need for forward thinking or innovation. Just keep the well oiled machine moving. Work is sparse at times - There have been 6 month periods where I had little to no work to do. Even when asking around, not much changed. It came to a point where I was hoping to get laid off because the boredom was too much. Bloated - There are way too many people working at Emerson. Most of them doing very very little. I would estimate a 3rd of the employees could be laid off with little to no efficiency hit. Boring - The company is just boring. The products they sell are boring. The culture is beyond boring. The overwhelming majority of people that work here are 40+ with little interest in socializing in or outside of work.

Vantaggi

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Svantaggi

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
