Pros

Maybe some decent low margin, commodity type products. Nice website - Actually makes the company look like a top performing company (Remember looks can be deceiving)

Cons

- Under staffed - Management Team - high and low are rookies from the 1970 School of Management. - Detroit is selling the most vehicles ever and TE is cost cutting. - Executive staff makes up poor performance ratings on the day of your yearly performance review. So 365 days of "great jobs" and "attaboys" and on the day of your reveiw, you are the worst employee ever. - The company has no idea how to forecast and/or is given unachievable targets given revenue base and operating profit.

Pros

Broadly a good company if you’re in a senior decision making role.

Cons

HR policies are words only. Years go by without ability to take any PTO and carry over not allowed. Friday afternoons, all HR US employees stop working with all others working past normal business hours and into the weekend including late Friday asks to complete an action by Monday 8:00 AM that was known earlier in the week but only communicated to the employee after Friday business hours. Every Friday. Onboarding structure / sink or swim approach, no training. No sense of belonging unless you’ve worked here 20 years plus. No growth or development opportunities unless tapped on the shoulder. Many openings are never published, again tapped on the shoulder approach despite offering to volunteer. Dismissive company culture. Every Voice Counts initiative is code for: if you do share your voice, you are on a list to not consider for promotion or any projects that would give you more visibility across the organization to foster one’s growth.
