Stressful place to work
Clerk Typist (Former Employee), Deer Park, NY – May 17, 2013
Pros: excellant benefits
Cons: no room for advancement other than being a secretary
I was very young when I started working for Eaton Corporation. I was 18 and although my title was clerk typist but I had a very high workload as if I was a secretary. I worked on the B-1 Bomber and other Government Contracts. My co-workers were former Military personnel and extremely demanding. The hardest part of the job was me being the only clerk – more... typist for 20 ex-military personnel. The most enjoyable part of the job was that I had secret clearance so I was exposed to classified material and learned valuable work skills. I typed many trip and expenditure reports for computer engineers. – less

Would be a good place to work if senior managers sorted out the self important dead wood.
Chemical Treatments Technician (Former Employee), Titchfield – May 17, 2013
Pros: location and wages
Cons: as above.
Cant get materials needed to do job. They say items are ordered 3 months later i find out they're not.
Management are incompetent.
Some good workers, but the laziest ones are best thought of.
Listening to meetings where managers are so out of touch that they actually believe what they're saying.
Being left alone to get on with my work.

Very busy, challenging department - which I prefer
Accounts Receivable Clerk (Former Employee), Eastlake, OH – May 13, 2013
Cons: the emphasis on attending college.
Eaton - good company to work for. Excellent pay and benefits and basic good working conditions.

Large volume of cash application. I handled that as well as balancing/reconciling the cash receipts statement against the Treasury Departments actual cash received (to the penny every month). Quite a large and great challenge.

Raises were based on continued – more... education - which I was unable to do when working there. (I had an alzheimer mom living with me and could not attend school.) . I felt this unfair and that more consideration should be given to my work performance. Health insurance went up - but still reasonable - and raises were less - due to not attending college. – less

Inside Sales Engineer (Former Employee), Arden, NC – May 6, 2013
For a first job out of college, this was a great place to work. Eaton provided extensive training, and management was wonderful about knowing exactly what they should expect from people fresh out of college. There are many opportunities for advancement in the company across and within function areas, and you make great industry connections.

Enthusiastic employees, company events, and training make Eaton a great place to work.
Production Assembler (Former Employee), Sarasota, FL – April 18, 2013
Pros: company events, community service projects.
Working in a production assembly department which built switches for Caterpillar equipment using manual skills, pneumatic and hydraulic equipment, and test procedures.
We had classes in metrics, safety, soldering, and other job related
subjects.
Eaton promoted community service projects such as clean-up of roadways which brought people together.
Many – more... managerial positions are held by workers who have moved up the ladder, starting from the bottom, and know the department well.
Co-workers in my department worked well together and were efficient in getting work completed as a team.
I liked the job and can honestly say it wasn't difficult in any way.
I enjoyed the camaraderie of the employees, many of whom had been there for years. – less
