Pros

The operators are truly exceptional individuals who exhibit remarkable dedication and hard work. They are a delightful group of people who consistently demonstrate their commitment to their roles.

Cons

The organization's stated values hold no significance for them. Their sole focus lies in financial matters, disregarding their employees as mere figures. The site leader engages in deceitful practices to manipulate data and mistreats the management team. The work environment is profoundly toxic, leaving much to be desired.

Pros

I loved Eaton as they were the first company to ever give me a chance in the HR field while I was still in my Master's program. It is a manufacturing, power management company so their locations are usually pretty remote or not the best, even the HQ is in Beachwood, OH. The pros are that they do take their HR seriously and the further you move up, the more strategic the work, but the entry level work is pretty grunt. It's just the day to day taking care of a facility kind of work and having to work alongside hourly employees and build a rapport with them so that they trust you and will come to you. The pay is middle of the pack, the benefits package is middle of the pack, their vacation is subpar (start with 2 weeks and after 5 years you get 3 weeks with the opportunity to also purchase a week of vacation by using your own money) and somewhat archaic. Company culture is very laid back but still very serious with its supply chain and the demands necessary for it.

Cons

Vacation time is garbage. The locations are really rough so if you get moved around, there is a huge possibility that you will be placed somewhere in the country or away from larger cities.

Pros

The salary is good and so the benefits are.

Cons

The leaders are hostile and "old" school. People have no onboarding, nobody is able to support you when needed, the stakeholders are never available.
