Pros

One of the global top 100 industrial company while boasting their leadership position in the products they sell. Focus on serving the building industry sector.

Cons

European based and narrow cultural diversity or acceptance. If you're not French, you're not much... No stock options in the US and only offer average benefit package.

Pros

There are zero pros to working here. Unless you count the newly instated 12-week paid paternity/maternity which only creates a massive amount of pressure on the rest of the business.

Cons

- terrible culture - clueless management/leadership - Overreaching, uneducated Human Resources Department - clueless management/leadership - some of the worst leadership I’ve ever experienced. Absolutely zero emotional intelligence. Near sighted & self interested - terrible pay well below industry medians. - clueless management/leadership - awful talent evaluation - clueless management/leadership - corporate bureaucracy - dim witted market analysis and business planning - horrendous change management - Division leadership is absolute garbage - no Training - For workers are treated like slaves - has no business serving any portion of the aerospace market - bonus objectives impossible to achieve and poorly established. - clueless management/leadership - Poor wages raises and bonuses - clueless management/leadership
