Pros

Benefits and coworkers were great, that's about it

Cons

After forcing people to make a decision to relocate to Chicago or lose their job, they also lied to an entire department about being able to work "remote" to only tell them that they their jobs would be outsourced to a different country and they would actively train their replacements over the course of a year. This was by far the hardest, worst thing I've ever done career wise. I've only heard horrible things since I've left and that it has continued to get worse. Senior management does not care about the people in the trenches doing the actual work, they only care about their paycheck and the bottom line. So many lives have been destroyed career wise with the decisions made by this company.

Pros

Literally run from this sh*tshow

Cons

If you’ve seen the new “Must Be a Moen” campaign from Fortune Brands Innovations / Moen, you might think it’s about quality, innovation, or pride in craftsmanship. Internally, it feels more like a running joke to explain away dysfunction. Confusing org structures? Must be a Moen. Constant leadership changes? Must be a Moen. Roles that look nothing like what you were hired to do? Must be a Moen. The gap between external branding and internal reality is… impressive. Strategy is talked about a lot, but execution devolves into hyper-tactical, low-value work with little alignment or clear ownership. Priorities shift frequently, often driven by whoever has the loudest voice in the room that week. Cross-functional collaboration is more theoretical than real—teams operate in silos, and decision-making lacks transparency. Instead of empowering experienced hires, there’s a tendency toward over-management and unnecessary process, slowing down even basic progress. To be fair, there are smart, hardworking people here—but many are stuck navigating a system that makes it difficult to do meaningful, impactful work. If you’re looking for a place where branding and reality align, this may not be it. But if you ever find yourself wondering “how did things get this way?”… well, I guess the answer is: must be a Moen.
