Pluspunten

What you'd expect from a big company . Very cooperate, not a great company for engineers. I would recommend this job to any unskilled laborer but not an engineer.

Minpunten

Most engineers that work at Eaton aren't skilled in being an engineer. It's more or less a "role". Your role as engineer is to push product not to engineer a product, but push a product for profit. There is no incentive for the company to provide you with skills. Your skill is to master "EATON"'s protocol of products and move up in the company that way. Take any Engineer that works for Eaton out of the structure of Eaton and he's practically useless. This is how they want it.

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.
