Ingersoll-Rand – “Overall, great company”

Pros

IR is a good company with many dedicated employees. They have a nice portfolio of quality, legacy products. They provide great benefits and treat the employees well.

Cons

Outsourcing the products to foreign countries is detrimental to the long term health of the company. Upper management is there to "check the box" and move up, not caring what carnage they leave in their wake.

Advice to Senior Management

consult the folks on the street and on the factory floors (the few that are left) for their input on products and how we should do things.
