Pros

The rotational program offers four 6 month rotations with 1 year in each location, so 2 moves are required. You learn what you really like and don't like in a job.

Cons

Average age is a bit older, but all the employees are great to work with everyday. Because of the economy, there are limited opportunities to travel and visit suppliers.

Pros

Since the Schneider Electric aquisition great strides have been made in efficiency and the direction the company is taking. Dean Meyer has shown he has his eye on the ball. He put us in great shape for the recession, and is bringing in people who will do the company a lot of good in the future.

Cons

The top down decision making nature of the Engineering departments can sometimes inhibit innovation and good decision making. Technical decisions often come from mid level management and any disagreement from the senior engineers can be brushed aside.
