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 are committed to continuous improvement, and would like to hear more from you. Please contact us at careers@pentair.com at your convenience.

Pros

People are great to work with. We have become a family just to survive.

Cons

Quit treating your people like dogs! They are what makes the company survive at the moment as we can't get out our own way - errors, late shipments, missed changes, etc. Management only cares about keeping their butts safe and everyone else is on their own. This is the most dysfunctional company I have ever worked for. I can't believe it is still in business. Getting rid of the people with the most knowledge won't solve the problems - just add to them.
