      Not a good company to start

      Pros

      Good learning opportunity, great work-life balance

      Cons

      No proper HR processes, managers are arrogant and think too much of themselves, present employees vent out their dissatisfaction, no competitive environment and people are more concerned to go home.. Too informal culture The project which I was told at the beginning was vastly different from what I did; so preparation was rendered useless.

      Development programs are very good

      Pros

      I started my career with Eaton in one of their development programs, which are 2-3 year rotational programs for which you spend one year at a time working in a particular job before moving to another city and a different job. The idea is to introduce you to the business while you develop a range of job skills and experiences. I've so far been very happy with how I've been treated and compensated. Eaton seems to place of a lot of emphasis on making sure development program participants are happy and interested in their jobs. Most people at my large office work normal hours, which suggests good work-life balance to me.

      Cons

      The industries Eaton is in aren't very interesting, the company culture isn't fast-paced, and a lot of their plant locations are in the middle of nowhere. Packing up and moving every year for 2-3 years can be a little difficult.

      Maybe there's hope

      Pros

      Great group of dedicated people trying to make a difference and move the company forward. Many locations and talented people.

      Cons

      Culture promotes behaviors that might be good for an individual, despite actions that negatively impact adjacent functions. Poor work-life balance.
