Pros

WFH flexibility, nice people, no one wanting to show off, company cares about people, learning opportunities, investment in products and technology for the products.

Cons

They say they are trying to be more modern, but this stops at middle management. When senior leadership is needed, they don't really care. Very hierarchical/old fashioned. Boomers in power are still behaving as you would expect them to. If acceptable results are being delivered, it doesn't really matter how, you just need to keep doing it. Heavy workload for all. The care they have for their products is not the same for their processes and policies. Company works in silos. Chaotic. Each area behaves differently. Each region does what they want. Slow in decision making. Low salary.

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.
