Emerson reviews

If you have less than 2 years in you are in real danger of being let go at any time depending on oil prices

The company has gone downhill over the last 5 years. Emerson use to be Employee's first, and actually care about them. The corporate nature of work has infected the company and employees are treated as a resource, not a person. Over the past 5 years, every year or two there have been early retirement offers and turnovers without filling those positions. A lot of historical knowledge has been lost and doesn't bode well for innovation or future growth. The engineers have been overworked without additional resources, and asking to innovate falls on deaf ears as active projects are #1. Product teams have also been combined without any concerns of the employees and their individual work processes and are basically told to "deal with it". This adds more stress to an already frustrated group and has lead to increased turnover. There are power struggles and management politics between teams in the same group that hinder development. The amount of time it takes to complete anything is 4x longer than it should be in the name of "getting it right".
