Eaton is Not What it Projects

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay and benefits for the area. Most of the actual workers are good people trying to do "The Right Thing" but are reluctant to do so when they know their jobs (and the ability to support their family) are on the line.

Cons

If you like Back Porch Politics and behind the scenes Handshaking, this is the place for you. If you like working for 8 to 12 hours a day in a concentration camp-sweatshop environment, please submit your resume'. If you can get along with a Plant Manager that implemented and promotes a fear culture, you belong on our "team". If you have a sense of Integrity and Honor.... If you raise the flag when something isn't right..... If you question the status quo.... Eaton Sarasota IS NOT the place for you.

Great place to work, but sometimes slow to change

Pros

Company makes an honest effort to take employee feedback into consideration when rolling out new initiatives. Managers care about their reports.

Cons

Sometimes the simplest changes take a very long time to implement within the matrix structure. The need to drive standards over time does not always address current needs.
