Pros

Great people to work with, great opportunities for advancement if willing to work hard. I would have nothing really negative to say about my experience there, I made regular career advancements throughout my 26 year career there. Company is progressive and diversified, and they have levereaged their portfolio to protect against market fluxuations very well.

Cons

Recent merger of Truck and Automotive groups into one Vehicles Group has caused major confusion within the front line work force. Large corporate atmosphere removes much of the individuality and talent of it's workforce. The move was supposed to highlight the 'Power of One', but it was handled poorly by upper management, and coupled with the economic downturn seemed to cause mass-confusion instead of the benefits as outlined.

Pros

Eaton Aerospace is a growing company that’s well diversified. They have competitive wages and benefits.

Cons

Management is non-cohesive. CEO has good vision and ethics. Subordinate management fails to align, especially with ethics.

Pros

Decent benefits, good customer base. Most of the employees (non senior managers) who work here are decent people.

Cons

Behavior of certain members of senior management is questionable, they don't practice what they preach. Inconsistent message from corporate vs. what is actually observed at the plant level with regard to ethics. Favoritism and bad employee morale is common throughout the facility.
