Pros

Benefits are good Pay is best in the area

Cons

Poor management and leadership team. Indecisive, lack of communication and direction down the chain. Very much a blame culture where you fear for your job. Colleagues appear friendly but atmosphere is awful, poor engagement and lack of motivation. Heard bad things before I started but put it down to them maybe not being the "right fit". Eaton is hands down the worst company I have ever worked for.
