Pros

Most business units are well run. Company isn't tight with its travel budget. Plenty of in-person (pre-COVID) leadership alignment meetings. Skilled, sharp, authentic, sincere CEO. Diverse product offering and industries somewhat insulated from industry-specific downturns.

Cons

Sensors division was a mess when I decided to leave. Was in that division 4 years, after a much better experience at a previous business unit for 3 years. Operations leadership at the time treated people quite poorly. Continually minimizing the significant contributions and voices of very skilled, experienced leaders at slightly less senior levels. I was very surprised to see what HR and top leadership allowed to happen in that particular group. It was quite out of the character of what I had been used to at the company in other divisions. Unfortunately, that experience in Sensors left a very sour taste in my mouth about the company, even though the prior 3 years in another group were some of the best of my career. I regret accepting the offer to transfer divisions.

Pros

Broadly a good company if you’re in a senior decision making role.

Cons

HR policies are words only. Years go by without ability to take any PTO and carry over not allowed. Friday afternoons, all HR US employees stop working with all others working past normal business hours and into the weekend including late Friday asks to complete an action by Monday 8:00 AM that was known earlier in the week but only communicated to the employee after Friday business hours. Every Friday. Onboarding structure / sink or swim approach, no training. No sense of belonging unless you’ve worked here 20 years plus. No growth or development opportunities unless tapped on the shoulder. Many openings are never published, again tapped on the shoulder approach despite offering to volunteer. Dismissive company culture. Every Voice Counts initiative is code for: if you do share your voice, you are on a list to not consider for promotion or any projects that would give you more visibility across the organization to foster one’s growth.
