Pros
Schneider is a fresh breath of air for me. It's is a company that does not judge you based on culture but ability. Many companies in our industry (Process Automation) use the term you don't fit the culture. Which is definition for you don't look like us. Schneider focuses on hiring top talent and strengthening that talent. Through training, developing and actually caring about its employees. Instead of the old and outdated good old boy system. Which brings no true value to customers.
Cons
It's a big company with a lot of procedures that need streamlining. Hiring takes a bit of patience but I guess anything worth having take time to get. Hey I had to put something here.
Advice to Management
Keep staying ahead of the industry. You may stand out but those that lead always do. Oh and streamline some of those processes.

Pros
Coworkers seem like family. We work well together as a TEAM.
Cons
Forecasts.....we tend to "live on the edge" not knowing what orders are coming. We take on more orders that we can make within customer specified time.
Advice to Management
Replace OS Manager. Please get someone that can truly forecast orders.

Pros
Employee friendly company, lots of training oppurtinities, international relationships, challenging tasks, personal development is possible, good salary for office workers compare to other companies
Cons
Not always clearified targets, rapidly changing directions throughout the years based on actual manager ideas, lower level of 'standardization' compare to automotive companies
Advice to Management
No special issues- A little more 'real' attention to employees, a little bit closer 'contact' with production and 'real life', more effective meeting techniques to speed up projects, time management

Pros
Excellent work/life balance. Work from home 2-3 days/week. Access to various recruiting tools and resources. No micromanaging as long as you're performing. Management actually listens to employees for constructive criticism and process improvements. Great team with no drama. They really care about your career growth and mentor you to help you advance within the organization. Excellent benefits, especially 401K and employee stock purchasing plan.
Cons
Some KPI's out of Recruiters control, but overall management understands if there is a discrepancy. Sometimes there are too many tools and systems we're required to work within.
Advice to Management
They actually take a survey of their employees' feedback on a regular basis to see what they can improve upon and take those results very seriously. My only advice is to keep doing that :)
