Pros
Despite all the cons, I did have a great boss who was very supportive of me.
Cons
Very disconnected organization. They acquire new businesses so rapidly and don’t spend enough time on boarding and integrating their acquisitions. I was hired as an Emerson employee at a location that had only been part of Emerson for one year before I joined. It was nearly impossible to integrate into the Emerson culture and I was stuck working in the toxic culture left over from the former company. Within the business I was working, it was almost celebrated to work around the clock and to work during your time off (very unhealthy). Also, when I tried exploring career advancement opportunities, I was accused of trying to jump ship. As a person who is goal and development oriented, this was very discouraging.
