      Company with potential

      Director of operations
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      In terms of compensation in the executive ranks, I cannot complain, they are competitive. Depending on division/operation, you do have the ability to manage medium to large operations. You even have an opportunity to manage globally if you can make it up beyond the Operations level.

      Cons

      HR has more voice than most other companies, but if you have a weak HR person then whatever management wants, goes. Leaders, depends on what clique you are from determines to some extent your longevity. Overall, they tend to reward mediocre talent at times and overlook those in the trenches really making it happen.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Eaton's policies and management are such that micro-management doesn't happen and employees are empowered to make their own decisions. Work-life balance is excellent and ingrained in the company culture. All employees are expected to behave ethically, top to bottom.

      Cons

      As a large corporation, changes can take a long time to be implemented, even at the team/department level. All feedback is evaluated and elevated, but can get lost in the mix.
