Pros

Emerson has been very helpful in building my personal and professional career. In my time with them I have grown exponentially through the programs they offer. I have utilized their tuition reimbursement and was able to move into an engineering role because of it. I can honestly say if it weren't for Emerson I don't know where I would be today. The people who type work for Emerson are always great. From upper management to the assembly line I always feel like we are one big family.

Cons

The downside of Emerson is they offer more middle of the rode when it comes to salaries. Although lately this seems to be improving.

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.
