Pros

The only good things about pelco are the engineering teams. Lots of talented people but due to poor management their talents are being wasted/taken for granted. Sad to see their jobs get outsourced.

Cons

Too many cons to count after Schneider acquired pelco. The executives they put in charge of pelco namely herve fages are utterly worthless. There were tons of layoffs and that little man always said he saw layoffs as a personal failure. When will he fall on his sword for constant failure? He should be fired and deported. I wouldn't trust him with a dirty napkin. Most, not all, of management are also worthless there, their constant failures result in longtime employees getting laid off or leaving due to no confidence. The way things look now pelco won't be around in the next couple of years thanks to Schneider and their idiots they placed at pelco. They deserve to go fade into oblivion and good riddance to them!

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.
