Vantaggi

Some latitude for creativity without burden of micromanaging. Generally attractive compensation and good working conditions. Company facilitates safe work practices and safety conscious environment.

Svantaggi

No job security or expectations. Would give Xylem a favorable rating if the company had some form of exit process for contractors. To terminate performing contractors and employees with no communication whatsoever from managers or exit interview from HR, etc. is most unprofessional and reflective of inept management. The HR function consists of multiple outsourced organizations and no communication between them seems to exist. Some lines of business are very wasteful of resources logistically and asset-wise. While no doubt it’s challenging to centralize a decentralized collection of businesses, it is my opinion management of this company is not performing in the best interests of their employees, contractors, customers and investors.

Vantaggi

Good pay, unlimited PTO, and the occasional free lunch when leadership is in town. There are also volunteer activities available if you want to get involved.

Svantaggi

Only 12 paid holidays, and Veterans Day and MLK Day aren’t included. Expectations shift constantly, creating rework, wasted effort, and frequent overtime that leads to burnout. The environment is highly political, with a small group gatekeeping information, unclear ownership, and perception often outweighing results. The business is volatile, with heavy, frequent restructures and ongoing headcount cuts. Technology and systems are outdated, processes aren’t documented, and training/onboarding is weak. The culture leans toward a boys’ club, and it’s easy to feel sidelined or disrespected—so you’ll need a thick skin. Decisions are driven by short‑term goals, and the future often feels uncertain.
