Eaton Experience
Pros
Eaton offers a fantastic number of benefits, which includes a competitive pay offering, a great working environment, and good talent development focus. As a whole, Eaton has a huge selection of opportunities, locations, and is often flexible with where you work. With flexibility in mind, Eaton is also moving closer to a "Millennial standard" with flexible work schedules, semi-tolerance towards access to social media during work, as well as moving closer to Millennial style working environments. Eaton is also a big proponent of community involvement, and encourages all employees to be a participant. They allow leave for community service events as well.
Cons
Eaton, albeit a strong company with a great working environment, struggles to create a comfortable atmosphere for their employees based on the challenges in the current market. Working in Vehicle Group has been especially nerve racking with a surplus of reorganizations and cost saving measures. In addition, Eaton can be selective and overly political with their hiring process, sometimes letting goals outside of strictly talent growth drive decisions. This is often manager dependent. Eaton also doesn't offer bonuses for folks under a certain salary band.
