Pros
Industry leader, Innovative, Great employees, exceptional senior management, wide variety of products and services focused around electricity in some way shape or form. With the old brands of Square D, Telemecanique, Merlin Gerin, and the acquisitions of APC, TAC, Juno, and PELCO Schneider can effectively provide the entire infrastructure for a new facility, from electrical, security, building automation, and lighting/controls.
Cons
Through the last decade Schneider Electric in the U.S. was "right sized" many times, stretching their workforce thinner and thinner. The company in many locations is doing multiple times the amount of business than they were ten years ago, with half or even a fourth of the staff they had 10 years ago. The overall morale of the employees has suffered and great talent has been lost to better opportunities.
