Pros
-Easy work. If you are competent and have some prior work experience you will be above most of the company in terms of skills. -Multinational company.
Cons
-Horrible culture. Crane advertises strong adherence to its values which are about treating people fairly and doing business open and honestly. However, the actual culture is by far the most dishonest and deceptive I have worked at out of 5 companies I have worked at in my career. Advertising of the "Crane Values" is borderline illegal since Crane flaunts these values to attract employees and customers but does nothing to adhere to them. You have good and bad in every company; here there are far more bad than good people. -Crane brands itself as a manufacturer of highly engineered products. In the fluid handling segment, there is a complete lack of technical competence and everything was engineered 20 years ago and is now trailing the competition. Current leadership is a group of dishonest sales guy type personalities who will say anything but won't actually do much. Unfortunately there is little cohesion and it is every dishonest weasel for himself. Don't get me wrong, there are some really good people there too. Unfortunately, the culture here is dominated by the bad ones. -Bonuses targets are structured so you don't meet them as a corporate cost savings initiative (really). -Don't just listen to me. Ask around the industry what people really think about Crane.
