Pros

Benefits are alright. They have a lot of diversity programs but could do better. Flexible hours and hybrid working in corporate which is nice.

Cons

Management tends to be hot or cold with no real direction. Can get praise and next moment feel like being reprimanded for something you were told to put on the back burner. Say you should have work life balance but workload is too high to ever accomplish that. Need more pto to be competitive

Thank you for writing such a detailed review and sharing your feedback. It is disappointing to learn that your relationship with your manager and general working environment were so negative. We understand how frustrating a lack of support and mixed messages can be. At nVent, we consider people to be our most important asset and try to ensure that we have a positive experience for everyone -- as well as set them up for success.

Pros

I had a great onboarding experience - my manager was very prepared with a clear and useful onboarding plan. The people have been very welcoming and the company culture is great.

Cons

The company is growing rapidly, which presents natural challenges - but the overall experience has been very positive.

Pros

Great place to work. Very considerate of actual career and life experience rather than focusing on having a degree. Management really cares about your success personally and professionally. Top-notch focus on career development. Cohesive, cooperative teams. Fair base pay for experience, good health benefits, and decent flexibility.

Cons

Your experience will be deeply influenced by which location you work at and position you work in. The company has a good framework for inclusion but in reality there are unchecked local employees who make it very uncomfortable if you can't pass for right wing. Raises are inconsistent and don't seem to be determined by performance ratings. Despite having a good review every cycle, I haven't seen so much as a cost of living adjustment post - promotion.
