Limited scope, strict and less freedom to explore

Outdated software Weak/difficult process Inflexible

Too large of a company; strategic thinking

Favourism Politics Critisicm Employee viewpoint not valued

Slow career growth in the company

They put there office in Franklin Tn. and don't pay there employees enough money to live in that city or county and expect there people to come into the office and be happy about a hour to hour and half commute. The cost of family insurance is about $700 dollars per month which is for crappy ins. $5700 deductible per person $11000.00 per family before it pays one dime. They took away pension and offer 401k what a joke, They took away vacation days and now you have to accrue PTO days throughout the year, everything they do is 100% for the company and never for the employees, during Covid other companies where helping there employees with paid days off ect. not here they took away our holidays , put us on reduced work weeks without pay , made us use any PTO that was accrued all while making record profits, this is what makes people mad.

-Career at Schneider has best trajectory with a completed Associate's Degree or higher

Can be micromanaged, depending on your manager. Company going through many internal process changes to try to bring together other business units, but everything is very muddy, not clear.

Lack of training, disorganized restructuring resulting in uncertainty for employees, sales and scheduling departments regularly fall short and personnel in the field are left to pick up the slack and take brunt of the blame.

Poor or no work life balance

Company promotes people into management that have potential but no experience and if cannot step up to the challenge are not managed and the overall team they are given suffers.

Nothing as of now.Depends on the team.

Management is a bit incompetent

Can get lost in the weeds or pigeon-holed into one particular area. For a big company they have a lot of inconsistencies.

Politics between departments None, More delegation should happen

Nothing specific as such to mention

Timings to office and sometimes deadline pressure

There is so much red tape clogging the company above the plant level, and often no one is sure where someone's job ends and the next one begins. Lack of tribal knowledge and troubleshooting company systems at that level really hurts the plants.

The company is doing overall good.

no cons cons cons cons

Pay is lower Operate on less staff than actually needed.

No much since very well established

relocations of positions might me unwanted

hard to get promoted internally yearly salary increase capped at low percentages

Some managers are brutal and unempathetic, which wasn't the case earlier

There is nothing I can think of that negative at SE

There's a lot of turnover.

- Toxic from management side - HR is the worst - High turnover

Too focused on operational tasks, less strategic exposure at junior levels

Diverse employees and collaborative culture

Things get repetitive after some years

No for so far all good

No proper work processes, clarity of communication to junior level employees goes missing often

The workload was consistently overwhelming, with high expectations set, unclear or frequently changing direction. Goals were ambitious but often not well supported by realistic planning. Processes were complex, time-consuming. Support from management team was limited.

Very dynamic and political working to sustain

The company has a supportive culture and a healthy work-life balance. However, the day-to-day tasks are routine,

- Might be overworked depending on the position and plant

Company policies are stringent without accommodation

- salary not following the market at all - confusing strategies and communication - there are no clear direction for career

Although the program offers opportunity to rotate to other departments, the structure might depend on each employee's development plan. For some people, the org structure and job scope for each rotation can be a bit confusing.

Pay, breaks, lunch is only 30 minutes, no parking spaces, mandatory overtime every Saturday.

Hard to find any cons.

Heat is hot during summer

Some top leaders engage in bad politics and create unnecessary challenges. And company dont have control to manage such leaders

Heavy emphasis on KPIs without introspection Inconsistent Rules Incomplete onboarding process

Matrix Organization, Global ownership, Time-zone

I have no major cons

culture at times can be a little difficult

Not good salary bump provided.

Leadership changes Changing visions No great recent product released
