Pros

Pay was competitive At a very high level honesty and morals were demanded and expected

Cons

Each plant ran themselves with their own version of values. I visited 4 plants and each one had the same complaint at the Coach/Supervisor level.

Pros

Fair pay and benefits, flexible work schedules, opportunties for relocation, decent growth potential

Cons

Short term focused, current strategy to outsource rather than improve. Lack of manufacturing strategy causes wasted captial and expense. Unwilling to take an immediate hit in order to improve long term results.

Pros

lot's of opportunity to learn and grow within a multitude of areas. Eaton will take their best and brightest and train them, take care of them, move them around the country/world to teach you about the company. Eaton is in an incredible position to take on emerging markets, like hybrid technology, and wind turbine growth.

Cons

Eaton has a silo approach where many people have two bosses that they report to, which of course can create complications as far as goals are concerned and who has the final say.
