Pluspunten

No company uniform, and easy to follow dress code that follows safety policy. Orientation and HR explains benefits well, and will help you out if you're doing your part. Activities for employees to attend. Casual amongst other employees (you can pretty much say whatever to most people, just look out for narcs). It's not very labor intensive after a week or two. No education beyond high school required. There are company meetings to keep you in the know about how the plant is doing. Great vacation (I believe like, 80 hours a year and the longer you stay the more you get). Discounts on products from Eaton's business partners and clients (Ford, GM, Hyundai... HP computers... Etc.). Eaton will help pay for college education. You get 2 ten minute breaks, 2 three minute stretch breaks, and a 30 minute lunch break (9 hour work days = hour of overtime each day).

Minpunten

Lots of drama and rumors. A total lack of professionalism (foul language and vulgarity). Favoritism. A lot of cutting corners due to people not caring about the job being done well. You'll be repeating the same thing for many hours (try to make friends there, it helps the time go by faster).

Pluspunten

whelp, their hiring. So if you're looking for an entry level position, they've got them open

Minpunten

Where do I start? If your goal is to make a tangible impact, change things for the better, or grow a modern career, look elsewhere. Stifling Red Tape: The company is drowning in administrative bloat and ancient, worn-out processes. It is nearly impossible to implement meaningful improvements because every minor change is strangled by bureaucracy. The organization simply lacks the capability to scale effectively. (They still haven't fully implemented Bussman, who they acquired more than a decade ago) Short-Sighted Leadership: Upper management is entirely hyper-focused on hitting short-term quarterly metrics at all costs, completely sacrificing long-term strategy and sustainable operational health. Subpar Compensation & Benefits: The base salary is hardly competitive with the current market. The benefits package is remarkably weak—health insurance options are disappointing, and you start with a meager two weeks of vacation. Zero Performance Incentive: There is no financial upside for regular engineers. Bonus potential is completely locked away until you reach a "manager of managers" level, leaving the actual individual contributors with no skin in the game. If you are a paper-pusher who thrives in a rigid, stagnant environment, you will love it here. If you want to build the future, go somewhere else.
