Pros

Eaton is truly a first class company. Above all, they treat their employees well and present themselves as extremely ethical. I left the company to start my own business ... if it wasn't for that, I would still be there!

Cons

Applying for jobs from outside the company is extremely challenging. They have an extremely high preference for internal candidates.

Beautiful building does not create beautiful work environment

Pros

Beautiful new building with amenities.

Cons

Many managers were "appointed" not by skills. It appeared that it was random appointment or "who you knew". And unfortunately, these managers were awful to work for. They did not understand how to manage people. Very disappointing and the biggest reason I left. I know others that left for the same reason. Our team was very overworked and underappreciated.
