I worked at Eaton as a contractor for more than a year

Pros – Pay is slightly higher than most in industry
Nice work life balance
"Bhaashan" about ethics and encouragement to innovation

Cons – None of their ethics related rules apply when the perceived culprit is an american and the victim happens to be indian

innovation according to eaton India is "field application engineering" where you put together bunch of existing eaton products. this combo forms a new "innovative product". no encouragement is given for fresh thinking. extremely stable company (read 'static')

all work has to be generated and driven from US. they dont need employees in India to be thinkers, they should only be good followers (i dont want to use the word "slaves")

Advice to Senior Management – grow up, americans are not Gods
