A Mission and Culture You Can Stand Behind

Pros

Pentair's culture is second to none. Compared to companies I have worked at previously, the employees here make a daily effort to adhere to Pentair's culture and mission. A large focus is placed on Pentair's Win Right Values, each employee participates in culture training and leave the sessions equipped with tools and methods to positively navigate through their individual career as well as Pentair. Innovation is valued and different outlooks and ways of thinking are appreciated. As a global company there are many opportunities to work with partners in different countries.

Cons

I'm surprised to read many of the reviews on this page. While I do feel that Pentair does seem to reorganize and change frequently, it has challenged me to remain flexible with my workstyle, a trait I'm appreciative to learn in my career. There does seem to be a "new" Pentair culture and an "old" Pentair culture. With the spin, many new faces and ideas joined Pentair. Sometimes it seems a bit difficult to change processes or ideas without hitting barriers set by the "old" way of doing things. It's important that we as a company continue to challenge ourselves. Additionally, we do run lean, which can cause issues with work/life balances. This seems to affect some functions more than others.

Pros

Employees care about each other. benefits are good. Long tenure and great knowledge

Cons

There is a management team in Solon abusing their employees. Emotional abuse, retaliating, favoritism, bizarre behavior. Everyone knows about it but nothing is being done.

Pros

Convenience for the career path I wanted to take

Cons

The pay is too low for the work load expected of you. The lack of leadership and communication leaves constant rumors and fear hanging over you every day of work. Being taken advantage of for your great work ethic and experience and being shown zero acknowledgment or career level progress for that will really get to you.
