Pros

The benefits are substantial. 401K without a vesting period is unique. Salary employees enjoy "unlimited" FTO. If the division I worked in treated employees the way I believe senior leadership envisions, if there were clearly defined career paths and annual reviews, Xylem would be a fantastic organization to work at.

Cons

The division I work in is corrupt; there is no other way to define it. Senior leadership talks poorly about others during meetings, threatening people's jobs in front of others. Zero training because they never received any, so why should you? No annual reviews. No career path. I asked my boss once about upward mobility, and he stated, "When one of us dies," how draconian. However, they do have a clear "chain of command" and never talk up the chain of command that they will give you feedback on. Directors call employees grunts. One can safely assume they view managers as glorified grunts. In a word, toxic.
