Pros

Good Facility Stable Company No layoffs Average Salary + Average yearly hike Office Transport

Cons

Things are messed up after Danfoss took over Eaton hydraulics business purchase at least at Pune Innovation Centre. Most of the senior persons (15-17 + years of exp) are jumping to the new projects without caring about the older team and projects. and the worst part is being in the organisation for so long , such senior guys get the Onsight from old and new projects they have a special priority queue in getting promotions and project transfer. If you want a project transfer ,promotion , hike etc you must be a blue-eyed boy for your manager! No documentation , no KT sessions , no transparency from upper management when a senior most technical guy leaves the project (after getting Onsite + promotion from an older project ) and the rest of the team is clueless about their future. No sense of responsibility at all towards the person’s own team (selfish behaviour.) Managers/ leaders hardly answer any of your queries , the most common reply you get is “Com- on you take up the responsibility , I am no longer working on that project now”. Top management always keeps saying that they are busy and never reply to your emails and pings and hardly attend any meetings. NO WORK FROM HOME POLICY, you must be in office 5 days a week , in case of emergency monthly 2 WFHs are allowed which hardly get approvals. Think before you join.

Pros

Relaxed environment. If you don't want to work, this is the company for you.

Cons

The most convoluted business structure I've ever experience. This company is divided into 3 major business units, which is then sub-divided into smaller units. I am a part of Danfoss Power Solutions - Fluid Conveyance. It seems that all of these different units operate in a complete silo. There is no overall, comprehensive global QMS or SAP training programs. They have no change management system; all of their documents for quality are in one location, regardless of the revision. No distinction between one business unit to the next. Documentation uses abundance of acronyms and vague language. A simple business process is not clearly defined nor is there official training. Finally, the specific plant I work at, has one of the worst quality cultures I have ever seen. The operators and operations management do whatever they want. Most of the operators don't even know what a SOP is, but management changes the SOP and expects operators to just magically know it. No training, no verification, no accountability. No division of responsibility. Quality is constantly put under the gun for things engineering should own. These people don't even know that you need to shut a tool down when it is malfunctioning.
