Pros

Very safe company to work for as far PPE. Lots of free lunches. Warehouse has AC.

Cons

To many bosses and not enough workers! Pentair is not the company they think they are. Micro managed to hell and back. Just play stupid and this is a cake job. Pentair just got a safety shoe deal but has had a eye protection rule for ever. Safety managers love accidents because it justifies there three figured jobs. Just watch weather men and women during hurricane season when they have a named storm. They become almost getty. Good luck share holders.

Pros

Pay was pretty generous Company stock options were good

Cons

Day-to-day operations are highly reactive, with frequent last-minute requests, shifting priorities, and unclear direction, making it difficult to consistently deliver high-quality work. There is often no consistent definition of “done,” which leads to repeated rework and extended revision cycles. Project ownership and decision-making accountability can be unclear, resulting in work stalling or cycling without resolution. Cross-functional alignment is inconsistent, and teams are often required to compensate for gaps in planning or structure. High performers frequently take on additional workload to maintain progress on projects. In my experience, accountability for underperformance was inconsistent, while avoiding conflict often appeared to be prioritized over driving outcomes. The work environment could be highly stressful at times, and I observed instances where colleagues appeared visibly overwhelmed during meetings. HR involvement in management concerns did not always result in visible or sustained changes from the team’s perspective. Overall structure and strategic direction can feel inconsistent, making it difficult to operate efficiently or plan long-term work.
