Pros

The people I worked along side were some of the brightest I have ever met. Rain Bird seems to hire good folks with great education and skills to match. As a whole my team members in engineering and marketing were excellent.

Cons

When your are hired on you are led to believe that they will promote you if you do your job well. Not true. They seem to know how to hire talented people but they have a hard time recognizing your contribution to the company. They never, and I mean never, share financial information about the company as a whole. There are some individuals that were promoted to senior management that just makes you scratch your head and ask why. My own manager understood the frustrations but his hands were tied.

A company that has lost touch with customers and rank & file employees. Some middle managers are ruining this place.

Business Outlook

Pros

In an industry with little or no controversy. Well known within the irrigation business.

Cons

A management that cares very little about the welfare of its employees. Managers at most levels are incompetent. If you have a MBA, you are IN at Rain Bird, even if your degree came from a diploma mill, and you can't even communicate effectively.
