Continuous Improvement Culture

Pros

Everyone at Eaton is asked to do more each year. Employees are asked to "raise the bar" on a regular basis and give more. This can be an exciting mindset for innovation.

Cons

The need to continually improve can be difficult for employees who are resistant to change or feel so overwhelmed with current workload that they can't think about future improvements. Lots of opportunity for advancement, but it typically requires relocation which can be difficult to manage from a lifestyle perspective.

Pros

Good leader, solid culture. The CEO has a good vision, but that will be changing soon, mandatory retirement rules. I hope that the philosophy and culture remain the same.

Cons

Work life balance is difficult, individual demands can be tough on your personal life. MFG roles are 24 hours / day on call, and anything else requires weekend work.
