Pros

Salary was decent and benefits are pretty good.

Cons

Eaton is only worried about their next quarterly earnings report or stock report. Upper management says one thing, and does another. They do not have a long term view on their investments in other business purchases. They are only worried about the short ten affects to their earnings statement, not the long view.

Pros

None Zilch Nada Ddim Nowt Nothing Zero N/A There are no Pros. I have to use 20 words but i'm just going to finish by saying. THERE ARE NO REASONS TO WORK FOR EATON

Cons

Everything. Managers are spineless and are only out for themselves Pay is not what it says on this site, it is about 10k lower Corporate structure is favored against progression through the company Unrealistic expectations and complete lack of understanding of the job from management Managers who have it in their title but don't actually manage anything People placed in positions because they have higher friends as opposed to actually able to do the job Crap atmosphere within the office Sales driven engineering, as opposed to engineering driven sales Specials are more common than actual products
