Working at Eaton in Sarasota, FL: 3 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Sarasota, FL Area

"Everything about the place is terrible. There isn't a lot to like about working there."

What do you like about working at Eaton?

"Good pay and benefits for the area. Most of the actual workers are good people trying to do The Right Thing but are reluctant to do so when they know their jobs (and the ability to support their family) are on the line."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"If you like Back Porch Politics and behind the scenes Handshaking, this is the place for you. If you like working for 8 to 12 hours a day in a concentration camp-sweatshop environment, please submit your resume. If you can get along with a Plant Manager that implemented and promotes a fear culture, you belong on our team. If you have a sense of Integrity and Honor... if you raise the flag when something isn't right... if you question the status quo.... Eaton Sarasota IS NOT the place for you."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Quit wearing blinders. Don't just look at the Metrix and think that all is well. Look at HOW those results were achieved. Fair treatment across the board. If it is ok for salaried personnel then it is ok for everyone. If the average worker has to comply so should the people who work on the carpet. Make the Plant Manager and his Staff not only Talk It but Walk It. If they won't then toss them."

"I found EATON to be a very exciting place to work in, as it provides ample opportunities for growth with all the fields it covers, and all the various products it offers."
