Pros

Eaton takes good care of its employees: good "work/life" balance, comprehensive occupational healthcare, sport and culture vouchers (up to 400 EUR/year, paid by company), state of the art office facilities. Most people are working for the company for 10-15+ years. For the 5 years I am with Eaton, every year I got a substantial (15%) annual bonus.

Cons

By DNA it is still a hardware product company. It strives to be a modern digital company, but struggles with it at times. Organization have way too many layers (up to 8 management layers), which is too much.
