Pros

nVent has great programs to support women and diverse populations. For a smaller company (~10k employees), I was surprised at the high number of ERGs (with a Chief Inclusion & Diversity Officer even!). Now that I'm in the company, I see that the culture really stems our desire to take a fresh spin on culture after our spin from Pentair (2018). We have strong female leadership at the board and C-suite level, and I believe that's made many positive waves throughout the organization. It means something to have a female CEO! I'm proud to be a member of this company--for what we do (connect and protect the world!), and for who we are! I've also gotten some great opportunity to grow and advance in my year within the company. Love it!

Cons

Like many other companies, we struggle with prioritization. It's overcome-able, but people need to be prepared for the fast pace of a quickly growing organization. I believe the pros outweigh the cons by a long shot for me. :)

Thank you for sharing about your experience as an employee at nVent! We are pleased to hear of the positive experience you have had thus far. We pride ourselves on our culture of inclusion and are grateful for how the ERGs reinforce our beliefs...and help people connect so many people in meaningful ways. And, continuing to become more racially diverse while increasing the number of women in management is a big deal - thank you for highlighting that. Always know that we are continuing to drive forward improvements as we mature as an organization – and prioritization of our various goals and projects is a big one. Thanks again for sharing. We wish you much continued success in your career journey with us!

Pros

Nice building with free drinks

Cons

Nvent relys heavily on the work done by their hourly employees from the shop floor to corporate staff. Yet they only give bonuses to salaried employees meaning management. Also they only give 2 weeks vacation.
