Pros

Good salary and bonus structure, excellent HQ office, modern system platform investments

Cons

I witnessed many leaders managing up to further their career. Lots of gossip and throwing people under the bus when they don't know the whole story. Promotions are spotty and can lean towards certain areas of a department. I saw no promotions within HR, except one team promoted six people in three months. Yet, my team and others couldn't get one headcount approved.

Pros

None that come to mind

Cons

No sales office Paranoid Management policing approach Lots of companies have been Acquired under the Nvent umbrella, and there appears to be no real handovers performed during the transition periods of these Acquisitions therefore new Managers come in with their own styles of management which in turn cause friction and poor culture throughout,
