Pros

Having started in customer service the opportunities for training is vast. Great pay and benefits. Support from management in seeking advancement in employment and personal growth.

Cons

With strict rules in place since the merger with Eaton it has made it difficult to further a career with the company and though I have years of experience with the company and management has been very supportive I am unable to be a candidate for other areas of employment without a Bachelors degree.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company has great benefits, great culture, and balances work/life for the most part. They definitely understand family emergencies and are fairly lenient. The ethics are much further beyond other companies i've worked for and they seem to really care about their employee's happiness. Great learning experience at this company and they do not babysit you but rather let you take leadership in your projects.

Cons

Bonuses are not always guaranteed since it's based on meeting goals for the year. This makes sense in some aspects, but it would be nice to be guaranteed some type of pay-out.
