Carrier used to be a great place to work. Not any more. If you are looking for a satisfying workplace, this is not it. - General Manager Carrier Employee Review

Pros

Carrier offers good work life balance. People are easy to get along with and it is a good crowd to work with. You get the opportunity to pick up some really good experience.

Cons

Carrier is totally focused on short term results - the company chases quarterly and even monthly sales/margin numbers. Everything else takes a back seat. There is practically no long term plan in place. Management is satisfied focusing on the short term results as that is what their bonuses are tied to. Individual contributions are seldom recognized and almost never rewarded. From a career standpoint, you end up going in circles. There is little scope for advancement typically as the company is extremely cost focused so they end up short-changing employee pay and avoid moving people up (if they do) too fast in an attempt to save cost. The company has some good brands but their cost focus is killing these brands. Overall, this company can be avoided.

Pros

The company offers competitive pay and a strong benefits package, including a good 401(k), charitable donation matching, and other valuable benefits. Success here often comes to those who are willing to prioritize the company's demands and fully commit to its work culture.

Cons

The culture is one of the most toxic I have experienced. There is an expectation that employees are available around the clock, making work-life balance nearly impossible. Teams are routinely expected to absorb the responsibilities of multiple positions while resources continue to shrink and bonuses become less rewarding. Leadership often relies on fear and pressure rather than inspiration. Instead of creating optimism and empowering employees, messaging frequently centers on competition, missed expectations, and what the company is doing wrong. That tone cascades throughout the organization and creates an environment where people are afraid to speak up or take risks. In my experience, concerns about leadership behavior and workplace culture did not appear to be addressed in a meaningful way. This left many employees feeling unsupported and contributed to low morale, high turnover, and burnout.
