Pros

I used to have nothing but amazing things to say about SE. but I no longer believe they care about their people. I really truely believes this was the one company that treated us like humans. But the unpaid holidays the cut salaries the knee jerk decisions to hurt their people and put them in rough financial situations to prevent it from hitting their bottom line. All while doing better during the pandemic than we were before, is disgusting!

Cons

Cuts jobs cuts salaries and stops paying holidays all to keep themselves richer! Then mandating medical decisions and forcing people with legitimate medical reasons to disclose their conditions/diagnosis for an HR “barely professional” to review it and make a decision on it. Telling everyone they will be terminated if they don’t comply. Barely get a 1-3% raise as a “performer” every year. This company is a joke. They don’t actually care about many of the hot issues they claim to, it’s all about positioning themselves to look good. Very politically motivated company

Pros

Great people, meaningful work, and strong opportunities for professional growth. As a large global company, Schneider Electric offers extensive resources, exposure to diverse projects, and the flexibility to explore different teams and career paths across the organization.

Cons

Bureaucratic processes can make it difficult to move quickly. Some HR policies feel unnecessarily restrictive and are not always clearly communicated during the hiring process. Referral bonuses are forfeited if an employee leaves before the payout date, even if the referral was successfully hired. Limited office presence in major U.S. hubs such as New York and San Francisco, and few options for part-time or reduced-hour work arrangements.
