      Pros

      Life work balance and positive safety culture are very conducive to a relaxed work environment.

      Cons

      Overall every company can work on communication. Good gains have been made in this regard, but always room for improvement.

      Pros

      Depending on which area you work in the company, there are some awesome people to work with There's plenty of opportunity to do different types of things, and the company is global although heavily American-oriented

      Cons

      Leadership seems to consistently change the organizational structure Very #s oriented company with short term focus on the shareholder versus long term focus on the end user + shareholder

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Pentair has undergone several transformative changes in recent years to emerge as a pure-play water company, and worked hard to be transparent and minimize the impact of these changes with employees as much as possible. We understand this was not your experience, and appreciate your candid review. We appreciate your feedback.

      Years ago was a good place to work. Now it is unbearable.

      Pros

      Flexible sick time for salaried employees

      Cons

      - Lack of respectful for employees on team who hold different titles, especially if below them - Lack of communication of key priorities, initiatives, and decisions from leadership (not executive leadership, but local leadership) - Leadership fails to make decisions, let along stick with those decisions; too many people involved in the decision making process unnecessarily - Projects are rushed for completion, providing little to no direction; projects are always late and never on time due to key stakeholders failing to provide proper input and direction - Agencies given priority for work over actual Pentair employees, increasing costs - Company overall at executive leadership focuses on "feel-good fluff" initiatives instead of addressing actual issues and concerns within the company

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are disappointed to hear your experience as it does not reflect the Win Right values that are the foundation for Pentair and shape how we do business and treat one another. We are committed to continuous improvement.
