Pros

Work/life balance (for non-field personnel) Flexible hours Allowances to new parents/options for new parents (flex time etc.)

Cons

If you are a field person (sales, operations, etc.) - Ecolab can be a challenging place to work for. I think our field and sales folks are overworked most of the time and are exhausted by the demands. They must fulfill quotas (customer visits, etc.) and yet still meet the customer's "demands" as well.

Pros

Excellent benefits. I worked for a Manager who actually cared about his people. Most of the folks sitting next to you will help you out when ever you need it. They don't have formal training - but your peers do a good job teaching you.

Cons

My manager wasnt the most knoweldgable about SAP. He listened too much to Marketing (who still knows nothing) They started using a screwed up way for charging for freight upsetting customers. Bad Website. Selling parts is easy - Ya gotta make it easy.
