Pros

There was a time when I would have said I have great colleagues, but they continue leave at every opportunity

Cons

Out of touch C-Suite blinded by PR McGuffins like the 'He for She Campaign', while hyper-political and ineffective middle management chase their own agendas and overload the dwindling herd of individual contributors. Outdated technology and thinking coupled with a fear of change cripple forward movement of a lumbering beast that seems content to react rather than lead.

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.
