Pros

Good benefits, that is the only benefit.

Cons

Micromanaging is the worst I have seen. You must put your mood on the board every morning like children, you are requested to only put good moods just as you are request to only put down a max of 6 hours estimated for the day even if you know you are working more. Just for SHOW.... Management is incompetent and the turn around of engineers is like that of a restaurant. IT IS HARD TO FIND SOMEONE THERE WITH OVER 2 YEARS IN THE COMPANY. Because they all leave! You will spend half the time watching your back as management will try to pin and issues on the engineers.

Business Outlook

Pros

Huge global organization A lot of opportunity around the world (in most functional areas, not all) Very diverse associate population Very diverse product portfolio Highly innovation driven Competitive compensation and benefit package

Cons

Depending on the functional area, life/work balance can be non existent Culture can be restrictive towards autonomy, creativity and empowerment despite published values to the contrary. Still tends to lag behind on higher level opportunities for women in particular Vision/Mission to transform from more traditional manufacturing to an IoT type entity on a global basis presents a significant challenge/risk. This could also be a huge Pro
