Eaton reviews

-Eaton would be a fabulous place to work if their values were actually upheld at every location. Your experience is heavily based on your site, and unfortunately, there are sites that are sinking ships that senior leadership is not interested in investing in reviving whether you have solutions or not. My site was totally disconnected from the rest of Eaton. I wasn’t even aware that Eaton had ERGs (Eaton Resource Groups) for ex. Women Adding Value at Eaton, until my final stretch with Eaton. -Vacation time (2 weeks standard) -Zero flexibility if you work at a plant with poor management regardless if you can do your job remote or not

* General attitude of the workers toward the management (not supervisor, just the office management) is extremely negative * Upper management (Production Manager, Plant Manager, HR Manager, etc.) rarely seem to be on the same page with their planning. * Decisions made by management seem to go back and forth, don't expect a change or improvement to last forever. * This is one of those places where if you do your job really well, you will be asked to do others jobs as well, and without extra pay. For those who perform well, you will be asked to take on more responsibility than those who are not performing, and you will not be paid more for it (line lead is a volunteer position, you may also be asked to be a back-up for someone who is in a higher paid position without receiving said higher pay). * This review is being written during the COVID-19 pandemic. One thing employees are very upset about right now is when we hear about other companies giving their employees hazard pay, meanwhile our retirement savings are no longer being matched, we did not receive any real help when we were laid off for a week (not due to safety, due to a lack of work), and our raises we are supposed to have received (based on performance) have been postponed until next year, and we will not be receiving back-pay. While there are companies that are treating their employees worse, Eaton prides itself on being a leader in how it treats its employees. We expected better.
