Pros

People are nice and good work/life balance

Cons

The day to day organization is a disaster with way too much turnover and too much focus on specific financial metrics. It can be nearly impossible to get things done because of all of the turnover and lack of processes. HR parades around all day about how great they are and how much they care, but are no where to be found when you have an issue, including compensation errors. Despite the mediocre internal employee survey results and poor ratings on external sites, the organization continues to lecture employees on how great they are and mansplain away the poor results. Most of HR and many of the managers are professional presentation givers who attend meetings with each other all day to promote themselves while leaving employees with no support. The "most ethical" company claim is a complete farce.

Pros

Competitive pay, potential for growth opportunities,

Cons

Company leaders emphasize the importance of retaining employees, however they only will retain you if you abide by their micromanagement. Your individual culture work experience depends upon what division and site you are at. No training for manager positions when onboarded but expected to know everything. Growth and development opportunities always mentioned but you have to wait 2 full years and have approval from direct manager before being able to even apply and need their permission. Toxic culture and leadership. Company has 0 work life balance and expects you to work 24/7 because that’s just the way the company has always been. Be ready to work on your PTO days. You might have a “seat at the table” but that doesn’t mean you have a voice at it sadly. Not a good fit for anybody under the age of 30.

Pros

Good salary for doing nothing

Cons

Quiet firing is style of some managers at Eaton India Innovation center. HR also supports them. This is a passive aggressive approach by some managers. Definitely not a place for premium institution candidates. Think twice before joining.
