At least in in the 2 divisions that I worked in, the pay was terrible. Why would anyone want to work harder when every 3-4 years they freeze pay. Things got so bad with the lack of effective technical leadership who didn’t really understand the... — read more

Exiting Russia or staying and taking a major hit to our reputation (and with it, the bottom line, I assume)?

I started looking for another job after because suddenly, after so many years of being a good worker for Emerson, now I get more and more criticism (in my opinion totally unfounded). Management is doing a "great" job when it comes to making... — read more 

Classic talking out of both sides of the mouth and positioning it by talking to the press to present “the Emerson narrative”

My father worked in this company as well. Back then, Emerson was something else entirely. A company that used to be very innovative, now fails to innovate, and instead we have mergers and acquisitions. I don’t intend to spend much more time here... — read more 

I knew that Emerson was not a company I wanted to stay in for long, but it turned out that the atmosphere here was worse than I could have imagined. Here, every mediocrity is more valued than people who really have the skills. Maybe I would stay... — read more

Is Emerson the next Monsanto, A-B, McDonnell Douglas, TWA, etc? How long can we support a top heavy bloated management structure without organic internal growth? This question will be important when oil prices settle back down.

I have worked with many good Russian employees over the years. I also know many good Ukrainian staff too. They have been a pleasure to work with. It does have me worried what the impact of the invasion of Ukraine will have on these good people. Will... — read more 

So many folks have been laid off or fired that I don't see how we could have any more layoffs. I know our management is not the brightest, but even they know that you need SOME employees for the job to get done. It's more likely that we'll see more... — read more 

They don't give a damn about retaining the talent or making sure that there are enough employees to do the work so everybody who is still here is not overworked. All they do is find ways and reasons for more layoffs so they could reduce the numbers... — read more 

Seems that any trust in Emerson is long gone. How do you turn that around or maybe you just hire new people while the ones who know how bad the culture is leave?

Do you keep in touch with anyone who left Emerson? Do you think they are doing better or worse? What kind of companies did they go to?

You preach about safety, but if the roads are bad, our safety is not a priority.

No need for people or hiring to fill all the people we lost. We did it without them. Let’s make another video to show how diverse we are with our handful of black people and the dozen women in executive positions.

What’s the latest on the MESC leadership situation? Last I saw, the new crew looked just like the last.

Seriously? Emerson can’t even keep the people responsible for finding talent

Can’t beelieve we have anything left and haven’t been sold.
