Pros

The Eaton India Engineering Center is financially strong. Has a lot of employees. Geographical location is at a good special economic zone.

Cons

Incompetent and professionally impotent management. Will support growth of only incapable people – since capable and courageous people cannot be controlled by a incompetent and professionally impotent management. Are keen on capable, talented, knowledgeable and initiative taking employees to leave the company. Management wants to make the Eaton India Engineering Center a swamp than a growing and flowering filed. So – only people who can do this are encouraged. Do I need to say more?

Pros

Pension is about it and you can call in sick as many days as you like, if you are that type of employee.

Cons

Have employees that take 20-50 day's off per year for being sick, or so they claim. Work with people that are not experienced or professional. Upper Management in Raleigh is old boy's network and don't understand sales. Some employees milk the system and take 3 hour lunches, are full of excuses, and their manager protects them. There are certain Manager's there who don't like conflict and have no backbone when it comes to addressing under-performing employees. Preach ethics, but employees sametime each other all kinds of thing's which are not ethical. They fire good employees who do their job for unfair reasons and keep those that don't even work.

Pros

Benefits and PTO were good here.

Cons

Management never knew what they were doing. Majority of management never even performed the job duty of the employees they were supervising, so they were always out of touch with production quotas. Additionally, they always encouraged overtime but also quoted it as a reason for dismissal. Lastly, their payroll department is a mess. Consistently makes errors on pay, raises, etc.
