Pros

Work schedule, don't have to commute at rush hour. Many opportunities are available for those who can break through the barriers of the old department managers.

Cons

Outdated manufacturing philosophy in this facility. Lack of standardized procedures and practices, it appears there are changes on the horizon. Could be an uncomfortable working environment as some of the old dogs try to learn new tricks.

Pros

Good company to have on your resume. Well known in Industry and you get the chance to network with important people in other companies. A world company so international work experience is a possibility. If you need a particular device or tool all you need to do is ask and it is usually given.

Cons

*Office Politics* Yuo have to be a "Sqeaky wheel in order to get the grease". Morale not the best. ALOT of cost cutting (if you claim to be a great company why not act it) All emplyees work on the same team, why is there so much resentfulness towards one another?

Pros

The company is often located in some nice areas, although that of course depends on exactly where you work. Emerson is a big, international company, so there will be opportunities for advancement across the company if you pursue them hard enough. Emerson is a very stable company and in general conservative, so you probably don't have to worry about volatility in the market nearly as much.

Cons

The pay seems to be at the low end of the range for companies in general. I think you end up trading stability for compensation. As a consequence, Emerson doesn't attract the cream of the crop in terms of employees. That doesn't mean some great people don't work at Emerson, but it's a consideration. The product lines also aren't that exciting. In this case, you trade stability for excitement.
