Pros

Sullair was acquired by Hitachi bringing better benefits and more stability after being owned by private equity companies. Good stability but lots of hierarchy Sullair is one of the better employers in Michigan City. As companies become more remote it will be difficult to compete. Products have good reputation in market. Developing new products takes too long to be competitive.

Cons

Promotions seem political. Some have been elevated three levels quickly. Most others have no idea what it takes to move up one level. Hitachi brought a lot of good but it also brought a deterioration of work life balance. Sullair has contributed to a loss of work life balance, when someone leaves they usually pile the job onto someone else. There’s been 4 CEOS in 5 years. Makes it hard for everyone to row in the same direction when priorities constantly change. Turnover very high in recent 6 to 12 months. Ask about it, see if they will disclose. Many very stressed, and overworked because of supply chain issues and has created finger pointing

Pros

Decent pay, good work-life balance

Cons

Leadership at the director level is consistently poor and one of the company’s biggest liabilities. Many directors lack the basic communication, accountability, and people-management skills required to lead teams effectively. Feedback is routinely ignored, follow-through is unreliable, and decision-making often feels arbitrary or politically driven. The company also does not honoring two-week notice periods, immediately terminating employees after they resign. This practice is unprofessional and short-sighted, sending a strong message that respect only goes one way. It creates a culture of fear, discourages transparency, and damages the company’s credibility with current and future employees.
