Pros

Great Education Reimbursement, and Ingersoll Rand University is awesome

Cons

Trane used to a GREAT company to work for, it was customer and employee focused. They were increasing employee benefits when other companies were cutting them, and increasing market share at the same time. Then Ingersoll Rand bought Trane and the focus immediately went from the customer and the employee to the stock price. Now every decision is based upon what is going to give the stock a short term gain. The result is a dysfunctional management system where millions are wasted on chasing dimes. It is very frustrating for a Manufacturing Engineer ( and most everyone else who does not get a bonus based on stock price) to see data driven, long term improvement based decision making replaced with flavor of the week (sometimes flavor of the day) decisions. There is a reason you losing market share.

Pros

Great work environment and work/life balance. I have the ability to manage my own work without micromanaging.

Cons

The process to be hired on directly from being a contractor was terrible. Backed me into a corner with a couple of days left on my contract and said to accept offer which was under what was communicated to me or basically i would not be working once my contract ended.
