Business Outlook

Pros

Great coworkers, good benefits, decent pay, reasonably flexible if needed.

Cons

Most employees are extremely overworked, almost no one ever gets a raise beyond what's mandatory, upper management is extremely disconnected. I had four different managers in 5 years, and teams would switch nearly quarterly.

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.
