Pros

1. Good work culture. 2. Work life balance. 3. Flexible time to work. 4.Being a very small company in Pune has good diversity of projects. 5. Good Culture and team bonding is good in almost all the projects. 6. In few areas Emerson has good command over it's competitros.

Cons

1. Management always thinks that they are right all the time. It's a myth. 2. Emerson Consider itself as a product based companies but compare itself to CTS, TCS Infy rather than with some product companies like Siemens. 3. Pathetic employee retention policy. 4. Being a small company of 1000 Employees Attrition rate is more than 20% on average. 5. HR thinks that their average pay is more than industry but still they don't able to retain employees. 6. Emerson also can't hire employees as they think Salary expectation is higher. 7. Leave policy is one of the worst in the entire industry, you can't club Sick leave and Casual leave together. Cl+PL not allowed, You can't take 2 days Casual leave, if you are more than 3 days on leave you have to take paid leave even if you have more balance in SL and CL. 8. Unnecessary trainings which doesn't add any value to core projects. 9.Too much micro management for simple things which must be avoided at the very place. 10. Too much process oriented, in everything they think they have to go by the book, which is good in pen and paper but in reality it doesn't work most of the time.

Pros

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Cons

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
