Pros

There are some great people that work at this company (but most move on within a few years). Pay can be competitive (but not worth it), depending on your background.

Cons

The culture is beyond toxic, especially in Cincinnati. Leadership leads by fear rather than by example. People are routinely belittled by management rather than empowered. Diversity and inclusion does not exist here. Neither does any form of work life balance. Adding to the toxic culture is HR. They are not trusted by employees due to the complete lack of transparency and empathy from the department. There is no transparency whatsoever from HR and they do not even understand their own policies. People are misled about bonuses and pay throughout the year. Everyone who moves on from this company is happier both professionally and personally. Please, don't put yourself in a situation where you will dread going to work everyday and find a company that realizes it is the 21st century.

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.
