Pros

Good and hard working employees

Cons

If you look up corporate greed in the dictionary you will see Ecolab’s name. Working at that company was the worst mistake I ever made in my long work career. Their treatment of their employees is legendarily bad. Due to their insistence to not pay their employees properly for overtime, they lost millions in class action lawsuits. Google Ecolab lawsuits if your skeptical. Finally after years of loosing lawsuits for screwing their employees they blue up their business model. Of course it was the employees that bore the brunt of the pain when they eliminated positions and reduced pay. The result was droves of employees saying they finally had enough and jumped off the sinking ship. Unless your starving stay away from the Ecolab nightmare!

Pros

Great management, interesting projects, and a very positive work environment. The team culture is strong, people are professional and respectful, and overall it feels like a great place to work. I really enjoy the type of work, the projects, and the way people collaborate with each other.

Cons

The main downside is that it can be difficult for contractors to transition into full-time roles. There seems to be a strong reliance on contract and offshore resources, so long-term internal opportunities may be limited depending on the business needs and hiring strategy.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
