Pros

I worked for Emerson at the Rosemount subsidiary in MN. Management was always keen on supporting their employees. Much emphasis was given to safety and the pace of work was usually not overwhelming.

Cons

If you want a fast paced work environment, you may want to look elsewhere. My experience was that Rosemount was a good place to maintain a career while raising kids/buying a home etc.

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.
