Pros

There are frequently opportunities for advancement and there is a willingness to promote from within. Relocation packages are adequate and reduce burden on employee.

Cons

Unfair pay practices related to legacy bonus plans from acquisitions - looking at comparable sites, some will have bonuses and others won't without good reason as to why not. Company is aware and won't address.

Pros

A company focused on the employee's well-being at the corporate level

Cons

Inconsistent managers. While they do have those that are good. Those that seem to be brought from outside of Eaton, do not share the Eaton vision. Only concentrating on metrics and not process improvements. If one metric is off, instead of asking what happened, starts with blame game.

Not a great company

Pros

Somewhat work/life balance. Give back to the community.

Cons

Healthcare benefits are terrible, especially for a company that have 45,000+ employees in the US alone. Constant MULA's, no real Christmas party or bonus. Treat you like a number, as they think anyone can do the job.
