Eaton Stumbles

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Products have a good reputation in the marketplace

Cons

Job uncertainty due to executive management incompetence. Eaton has stumbled since their reach exceeded their grasp and they acquired Cooper. The fallout has been a January downsizing across the company that hurt people with good performance records. One unfortunate individual at Bussmann was downsized when he was planning to retire within a year. This is how loyalty is rewarded.
