Pros

Global company, the benefits are pretty good, and the work is really easy We always heard about training opportunities at Grundfos Academy, but i believe they were myths.

Cons

There is very low employee morale that has plummeted in the past few years with new management. In Indianapolis, they ran off almost everyone that knew what they were doing by trying to get anyone with more than 10 years of experience to retire. They get rid of people who challenge ideas, even respectfully, so they don't have to explain any decisions. Business is suffering horribly because workers are not engaged. Laziness is reward and hard-workers are neglected. It is not uncommon to ask questions and hear "that's not my job" as an answer from almost any department. Management structure is very top-heavy, with lots of managers who seem to just sit around and talk all day, only leaving meetings to grab a bag of chips and a coke. Managers are more concerned about protecting their own agenda than doing what is best for the company or their employees.

Pros

Excellent benefits, better than most other companies; Good family and work balance; good coworkers; immediate supervisors have been good and have my respect.

Cons

As time goes by, the company appears to be focusing more on sales to meet their quotas. Technical support for service and repair has always been lagging behind. Little to no bonuses for the past five years. People are continually being pushed to their limits. People from other departments have been given the choice of either going into sales or being let go.

Pros

Excellent forward thinking management. The Danish parent values human resources, and the company is a great work environment.

Cons

The physical facilities in the Texas plant are aging, and they are not great for day to day activity.
