Parker Hannifin Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"The IT systems were the weak link. Doing basic things took a long time. Management seemed reasonable, but previous decisions kept new technology from being developed. Trying to develop a new design in an environment that avoided IT investment and hadn't done modern design work for 8-10 years was difficult."

"It is a good place to work at. There is a lot of politics though."

"I worked as a finisher and let me tell you the amount of work you will do for what they pay you is not worth it. First of all, you have to begin as a temporary for six months. I am pretty sure this is just something they cooked up to avoid paying extra taxes or something. Secondly they always want you to work overtime. At the plant I worked at there was a recordable incident just about every month. It seems all the college management went through did not teach them any common sense."

"This was my second time working for Parker Hannifin, my first time as a contractor. Individually, the people were friendly, but as an organization they seemed somewhat cold."

"It has been good to me. It is a good company to work for."

"I have worked at Parker for eleven years, It is a good company to work for."

"I have worked in the Parker Hannifin Corporation GTFSD, Devens, MA, repair station since Aug. 2007.
