      Culture depends on different locations

      Pros

      Emerson is a large conglomerate, which means there could be opportunities in other locations and could be a way for you to make a promotional leap. In fact, it's expected as they want you to gain experiences in other roles and environments. Culture is strong and respectful. I'm a minority and have felt welcomed in my role. However, there are times where I was the sole presenter for a planning meeting where I wasn't invited to attend in person (I had to present via webex). There were only 6 presenters in a group of 20... which means people were invited who did not present. I'm a minority. Everybody else was white. Why?? I didn't feel this as overt racism and believe Emerson intends well. But they need to be more conscious about things like this, because it affects the under-represented.

      Cons

      You need to get along with your management team. Many times it seems that people are promoted based on personal preference rather than by performance. This leaves others to feel bitter and question decisions by management about fairness. This can leave a stain on the environment that 'HR team activies" won't help (I've witnessed 3 years of it at one location... they didn't work so they eventually stopped bothering.)

      Pros

      Great people, great technology and great customers

      Cons

      Changing leadership from primarily outside the company has resulted in a loss of the cultural that made the company successful, don't think it will be the same company ever again
