Pros

If you are just starting out in the industry Schneider Electric is a good place to start. Most departments have a teaching environment. The more experienced engineers will take time to explain things in detail to help you understand the job. Employee retention is good as well. There is a large number of employees with 10 or more years.

Cons

The pay is not competitive and not until recently Schneider did not recognize individuals for their hard work or going the extra mile. There are several areas, Application Engineering being one of them, within the company where the career path is very limited.

Pros

- Decent pay and good benefits - work truck with gas card -good experience

Cons

- management is disconnected from field employees - review process does not reflect employee performance since managers do not go out in field in order to properly assess job performance - poor communication which leads to chaotic project implementation - no standardization of necessary info for each customer site. You walk in completely blind each time you visit a customer you’ve never been to - safety is important, but corporate pushes redundant messaging so frequently i believe it has the opposite of the intended effect - forced to wear long sleeves FR shirts in hot weather even when you are not exposed to fire hazards any more than a standard office employee
