Donaldson Company – “Great company to work for!”

Pros

This company is outstanding! They show respect to all employees, and are committed to helping their community (charities and blood drives) and the world (they're global). They are a 'green' company as well - their products help clean the air we breathe. They offer fair and just salaries or hrly wage, offer good benefits (medical, dental), local area perks, and reward employees for doing a good job. Most employees are committed to doing their very best - will stay late and come in early to 'get the job done' -- many have been employed years there.

Cons

If they can, it would be nice to see more flexibility of hours - allowing workers to come in early or stay late. There are also opportunities that I saw to allow employees to work from home, but no discussions have been made in that direction yet.

Advice to Senior Management

I am very impressed on how you value employees - ex: to see senior management helping and serving general employees at the annual United Way campaign. When a major distribution problem arose, senior management (including the CEO) went out to work on the floor!
