Pros
Great Education Reimbursement, and Ingersoll Rand University is awesome
Kontras
Trane used to a GREAT company to work for, it was customer and employee focused. They were increasing employee benefits when other companies were cutting them, and increasing market share at the same time. Then Ingersoll Rand bought Trane and the focus immediately went from the customer and the employee to the stock price. Now every decision is based upon what is going to give the stock a short term gain. The result is a dysfunctional management system where millions are wasted on chasing dimes. It is very frustrating for a Manufacturing Engineer ( and most everyone else who does not get a bonus based on stock price) to see data driven, long term improvement based decision making replaced with flavor of the week (sometimes flavor of the day) decisions. There is a reason you losing market share.
