Legrand reviews

Autocratic management that hampers diversity in minds and actions and leads to inefficient politic games Showcasing long working hours (7am-10pm) is a must and a necessity considering endless and inefficient meetings (old-fashioned management style, still ruled by strict hierarchy rather than collaborative relationships, thus impeding the contribution of each individual - awkwardly French from the past century!) Overall low qualified managers as a consequence of a low training policy: seniority privileged over skills - patience will be rewarded more than talent

Legrand was a initially a great place to work and I had planned to retire there. Unfortunately, It became increasing WOKE starting in 2017-18 with an aggressive DEI agenda by setting quotas for the percentages of women and minorities that needed to be in upper management for the coming years. Promotions and hiring became based on everything but-skill set, industry experience, merit, etc. Some Legrand companies suffered significantly financial loses because of these management decisions (Q-Motion & Solarfective) If you're female and or person of color-definitely apply. Don't waste your time if you are a white male over 45. Its sad how many dedicated long term employees were let go over the past 8-10 years.
