Pros

Some really wonderful talented people work there.

Cons

First of all, when this site questions whether you approve of the "CEO" or not, that question is misleading. The CEO of this company no longer holds ANY power or makes any decisions, so yes most people approve of him. The real power of this company is held by, the "CPO" (yes, she made up her own title...Chief People Officer). If you asked for the approval rating of this position it would be 0% She rules by fear. She will fire at will for no reason. There are cameras everywhere and all exit doors have to be badged in and out for time tracking down to the minute. Only one person in the HR department has been there longer than six months. 6 HR associates have quit without notice in last six months because of the CPO. Good, long term employees are leaving left and right.....customer service manager, top product managers, top IS people, salesmen, etc. Don't worry there is a long line of new people wanting to hire in based on the false promises made during the excessive interview process. The CPO even controls what is in the vending machines. No regular soda is allowed. As an adult, you are not even allowed to choose your own beverage. T

Pros

Get 40 hours a week

Cons

Employed over 20 years and started to go downhill rapidly once the family started selling out their share of the company to the current CEO. "Chief People Officer"(whatever that is) is completely power hungry and makes sure the people hired below her is the same way. It's a fear environment and it has spread to every part of the company. There are some in management that has stayed a long time and made sure that long term employees were terminated, as long as it wasn't themselves. Company has a habit of buying out "smaller competitors" and then eliminating long time employees and replacing them with NIBCO "cronies". If the mafia is alive and well today in northern Indiana, then I'm sure there are ties to this organization. If the CEO and his wife could buy out some of the larger competitors, they would. But as long as the customers are smart, they will buy from the competitors. Better product and better customer service. The CEO and his wife rule as if they are king and queen of something, when in fact they are king and queen of nothing. Someday their "kingdom" will fall and they will be exposed. Their "legacy" as they put it will be the laughing stock of the world. Anyone who loyally follows them will fall right with them. NIBCO was founded on family values, but this generation of the family has rooted their evil claws deep within the organization and has destroyed those values.
