I wonder

if you’re ever embarrassed to admit who you work for?

Proud to have worked here up until about 2010-12. Now I give away all my Emerson swag crud, usually has to be to Goodwill though. Nobody else wants it.

So many Emerson employees are ‘bred for and born into’ a career of mediocrity.
Catholic School, Rolla or maybe Mizzou for college, Fraternity and then mother Emerson until they get surprised by a layoff or maybe a retirement cake.

How many MIT, U of Illinois, Purdue, Michigan, or other top school grads?

How many people transfer from top engineering companies? Or transfer to them?

We WANT middle-of-the-road. We want the good ol’ boys.

As soon as someone takes the blue pill, their desk is empty the next month!

If you are truly and honestly “embarrassed” working at Emerson then it is time for you to leave. For the sake of your own good health. I am not on Managements side in this discussion but if a person feels that strongly about the company then it is unhealthy for that person to stay in such an environment. Time to say goodbye………,,,,,,,,,

I wouldn't want my family or my friends to work at Emerson Copeland Scroll due to the way they treat the empoyees working in the Assembly areas. It like a prison, all it's missing is the chain's the got the bar's.

Outside of fossil fuels and chemicals, everyone thinks Emerson just makes TVs. So I’m quietly embarrassed for myself.

I’m proud of being an engineer, but embarrassed about being an Emerson engineer.
I’ve never seen excellence ignored and mediocrity exalted as I did at MESC.

Yes - I've worked for Halliburton and Enron in my career.
And Wells Fargo as a security guard in college.
There is no he-l, I tell myself.
