Pluspunten

Benefits are decent. 401K and pension is a plus. Eaton does offer alot of training to help further career development and product knowledge. Eaton employees qualify for discounted eaton electrical / cutler hammer products such as breakers, load centers, surge suppression devices, back up power (generators), transfer switches, etc etc etc

Minpunten

Lack of communication between groups is frustrating. If you get 'too good' at your job, management may try to keep you from leaving your position for another position.

Pluspunten

whelp, their hiring. So if you're looking for an entry level position, they've got them open

Minpunten

Where do I start? If your goal is to make a tangible impact, change things for the better, or grow a modern career, look elsewhere. Stifling Red Tape: The company is drowning in administrative bloat and ancient, worn-out processes. It is nearly impossible to implement meaningful improvements because every minor change is strangled by bureaucracy. The organization simply lacks the capability to scale effectively. (They still haven't fully implemented Bussman, who they acquired more than a decade ago) Short-Sighted Leadership: Upper management is entirely hyper-focused on hitting short-term quarterly metrics at all costs, completely sacrificing long-term strategy and sustainable operational health. Subpar Compensation & Benefits: The base salary is hardly competitive with the current market. The benefits package is remarkably weak—health insurance options are disappointing, and you start with a meager two weeks of vacation. Zero Performance Incentive: There is no financial upside for regular engineers. Bonus potential is completely locked away until you reach a "manager of managers" level, leaving the actual individual contributors with no skin in the game. If you are a paper-pusher who thrives in a rigid, stagnant environment, you will love it here. If you want to build the future, go somewhere else.
