      Sites OK, corporate out of touch

      Pros

      Benefits and mission were good. People at the site were interested in success.

      Cons

      Corporate management had at times either no strategy or a strategy that was out of touch. Did not have much interest in taking input from sites who knew the customer and needs.

      Pros

      Great benefits and good starting salary.

      Cons

      the number of hours worked are not enough to justify the higher salary. No work and life balance in which they expect you to work 24/7 to solve emergency calls. High turnover job.

      Pros

      • Surrounded by a great group of like-minded individuals who work towards providing the best solutions for scientists, researchers and water monitoring professionals around the globe. • Work with cutting edge technology. • Many opportunities for collaboration amongst divisions, offering access to professional growth and expansion of skills.

      Cons

      • Xylem is a "young" company and still unorganized in many key functional areas. • (In San Diego) salary does reflect cost of living. • Health/dental benefits mediocre. • Not for those who are corporate-culture adverse. • No stock option or stock-purchasing incentive program for non-executive employees. • Too many chiefs and not enough Indians. • Needs to invest in R&D before technology becomes obsolete (see bullet point above).
