Pros

nVent has great programs to support women and diverse populations. For a smaller company (~10k employees), I was surprised at the high number of ERGs (with a Chief Inclusion & Diversity Officer even!). Now that I'm in the company, I see that the culture really stems our desire to take a fresh spin on culture after our spin from Pentair (2018). We have strong female leadership at the board and C-suite level, and I believe that's made many positive waves throughout the organization. It means something to have a female CEO! I'm proud to be a member of this company--for what we do (connect and protect the world!), and for who we are! I've also gotten some great opportunity to grow and advance in my year within the company. Love it!

Cons

Like many other companies, we struggle with prioritization. It's overcome-able, but people need to be prepared for the fast pace of a quickly growing organization. I believe the pros outweigh the cons by a long shot for me. :)

Thank you for sharing about your experience as an employee at nVent! We are pleased to hear of the positive experience you have had thus far. We pride ourselves on our culture of inclusion and are grateful for how the ERGs reinforce our beliefs...and help people connect so many people in meaningful ways. And, continuing to become more racially diverse while increasing the number of women in management is a big deal - thank you for highlighting that. Always know that we are continuing to drive forward improvements as we mature as an organization – and prioritization of our various goals and projects is a big one. Thanks again for sharing. We wish you much continued success in your career journey with us!

I had a great onboarding experience - my manager was very prepared with a clear and useful onboarding plan. The people have been very welcoming and the company culture is great.

Cons

The company is growing rapidly, which presents natural challenges - but the overall experience has been very positive.

Pros

Great place to work. Very considerate of actual career and life experience rather than focusing on having a degree. Management really cares about your success personally and professionally. Top-notch focus on career development. Cohesive, cooperative teams. Fair base pay for experience, good health benefits, and decent flexibility.

Cons

Your experience will be deeply influenced by which location you work at and position you work in. The company has a good framework for inclusion but in reality there are unchecked local employees who make it very uncomfortable if you can't pass for right wing. Raises are inconsistent and don't seem to be determined by performance ratings. Despite having a good review every cycle, I haven't seen so much as a cost of living adjustment post - promotion.
