Pros

The only pro was the benefits. Nice 401k options to choose from. Normal match I believe 5%. Good health options. HSA.

Cons

While HR is trying to change the culture, the culture is very fear induced. Management treats high level employees as scapegoats and they give you non busy tasks to work on. Management has way too many bosses each with their own agenda which causes a lot of confusion. And their agenda doesn’t have anything to do with the bonus, it’s about them making themselves look good to keep their job and you are their pawn. No communication in the work place and everything is kept a secret. I have heard bosses actually scream and yell at each other. This company has placed people with no management experience in management roles. This is the one time that I wished that I listened to Glassdoor. Please make sure when accepting an offer here, your gut doesn’t feel off and if it is listen to it. I feel that the past couple reviews was HR trying to increase the score. You will be overworked and bosses expect you to stay. My boss told me that I shouldn’t leave at 5pm because it was “unacceptable”. When walking in the elevator every morning, people look miserable. And saying good morning and being friendly, do not expect a nice response or even one at all. HR will try to draw you in with the new open floor plan changes going on but walking around the floor, during work hours, there is no one there and the people who are there look unhappy and uncomfortable. The regular cube floors have very high walls and are placed into pods, which makes it to be a not friendly environment, and due to the high walls of the cubes the floors are very dark.

Pros

401k is good Benefits got more affordable

Cons

The biggest con is what must these big companies fail to focus on. Money. If to ask, even if you document measurable results ,that i spent a long time composing. You are told that other mechanics get the same or around the same pay. Then say no. Going the extra mile everyday, doesn't get you anything . Yes it's pay. We start a little better than market. But don't go up from there. Yes not right. Not we cannot get any overtime to make up for the lack of raise . It forces good mechanics out . Also they focus way to much on irrelevant things like dei etc .it should be the work you do not what you look like.
