      Pros

      ITW is large and diversified the work is interesting. They have a lot of good propaganda.

      Cons

      The company has a constant message that we want you to grow and drive for success to reach your full potential. "We believe in our talent pipeline".... ETC. However they aren't taking the time to actually develop employees with potential. Having been with the company for a few years now, I can say first hand that I had little to no direction from leadership, and when I expressed interest in development several times over the past two years, I was ignored, manly because no one in leadership cared what I did as long as my numbers were met. Our particular division is not growing. Now that I'm attempting to take my development into my own hands I'm being told "Oh well you weren't on some secret list of ppl to develop. So we are going to have to ask you to sit back for a year so we can decide how to develop you." All the while I've only actually been provided with 1 formal review where a manager speaks to me in the entire 3 years. I have no path forward in my current role, and while there is a tuition reimbursement program, unless you are on some secret list, they refuse to acknowledge your potential.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at ITW. We want to see all of our colleagues ignite their full potential, not just a select few, and we do this through encouraging and supporting development utilizing the 70/20/10 development methodology. 70% comes from challenging on-the-job experiences, 20% from hands-on coaching, and 10% from formal training. We expect all managers to provide feedback, including conducting annual reviews and having development discussions with colleagues to encourage continued growth. If this is not occurring, we encourage you to reach out to your local HR team for further conversation.
