Friendly people, good work / life balance. Ample opportunities for career advancement at the field level. Reasonable compensation. Focus on growth

There is a significant disconnect between corporate and the field. Historically speaking, the company brings in senior management from outside.

An amazingly dysfunctional company!

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

The benefits package is very competitve. My particular manager gave me great latitude in order to achieve my goals. By and large, most personnel were friendly and helpful.

Cons

HR and Benefits administration are horrendous. Due to the longevity of some employees, there is no sense of urgency within the organization. Integration of the Pentair group and GE group has created a dysfunctional mess! Upper management carries the arrogance of GE without the competence of GE. I cannot recommend Pentair.
