      Pros

      Pay is alright, facilities are very up to date and well kept, benefits (medical, life, etc) are pretty good. The best perk is the insanely high profit share into your retirement account. I also like to see Emerson at least trying to help with diversity in STEM fields. Lots of room available at the company for growth, whether it be staying on your current track or moving into a different area.

      Cons

      It would have been nice to know during the interview process that the work from home benefit was mostly a sham and is beholden to the whims of your manager entirely. Also there's no real evidence that Emerson is helping with the transition away from fossil fuels outside the company as most development in the group I'm part of is going straight into the hydrocarbon industry that's destroying the planet. The CEO's moves to divest from portions of the business that don't support the "core" is also alarming.

      Pros

      Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

      Cons

      (1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
