      Good at first then overused and burned out

      Director

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      A lot of smart and good people to work with at the business unit level. Support leadership development and opportunity for most people & positions. Financial juggernaut and job security.

      Cons

      Company as a whole didn't manage performance, but preferred to move poor performers into other roles. In my experience at Emerson if you are a top-performer you are over used and they try to squeeze as much out of you as they can which led to burn-out. That approach combined with lack of overall performance management allowed poor performers to remain employed while top-performers left the company.

      It was a good place to work

      Principle engineer

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      excellent profit sharing, great benefits

      Cons

      Product development moves slow, but we always created a great product. New CEO used company email to push his political agenda to the entire company, 80,000 employees.
