Pros

Someones benefits when they don't change annually.

Cons

The company has a pattern of investing in employee development but then laying staff off to improve financial metrics. While leadership questions high turnover, employees often feel a lack of job security. Those with higher salaries due to experience, as well as newer hires, may find themselves unsupported during challenging times. In addition, new initiatives, software, and strategies are consistently rolled out from upper management with a “bird’s eye” perspective, without gathering meaningful input from the teams directly impacted. This top-down approach limits the effectiveness of change and overlooks valuable expertise at the operational level. The organization has significant potential, but in practice, it functions as little more than a place to collect a paycheck, as meaningful change is rarely supported or sustained. Even programs branded under IMPACT feel misaligned — more like “Imposing Management’s Plans And Cutting Talent” than truly empowering employees.

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.
