Pros

Some people in the specialist and lower level positions are genuinely really kind and knowledgeable; we all help each-other stay sane. It’s a shame that upper management is too afraid to make change and speak up for the better of their teams. Someone really needs to to stop and recognize/reward their employees for good work! The work really isn’t that bad, it’s actually enjoyable if you’re working with the kind people I mentioned above. However the environment and policies really make coming there every day a true nightmare.

Cons

The Cincinnati office has one of the most toxic, abusive office cultures I have ever seen. There is nothing “human” about the human resources department—they are very focused on micromanaging every aspect of your time in the office with no regard for who you are as a person or what is going on in your life. Salaried employees are mistrusted and treated like hourly fast food teenagers. The company itself is convoluted and cheap, very disorganized. Only focused on pleasing the higher ups, and the higher ups seem to only care about climbing the ladder and not making waves because they want to cover their own positions. Anyone who speaks up and tries to change any process for the better will be shot down or fired eventually for some silly reason. This is the kind of company where you will stress about being 30 seconds late, where you will come to work despite having the flu for fear of taking sick days, that will destroy friendships you have with coworkers, where you will miss appointments and skip lunch because you are afraid of getting punished for leaving the office. They target young people right out of college....Don’t fall into the trap, just stay far away.

Pros

None. They took all our benefits and overwork everyone. Moral is in hell.

Cons

Everything. I can't think of one good think about Crane Co. The culture is abhorrent and archaic. They tout that they care for employees but then take all the benefits we had and expect us to thank them for it and work harder for less. Crane overpaid for our businesses and now they are desperately trying to squeeze us for anything they can get, but they are not making back the $1B they spent in the next 20+ years. I loved my job and the company I work for before they took over.
