Pros

Cooper Standard has lofty goals that the executive team is driving towards. I can’t tell you how we’re doing because we receive no communication from leadership. My co-workers and I have been told ‘it is what it is” by our Director. We’re given no opportunity to truly developed and the North American HR team is no where to be found…literally they’re never in the office. The entire Engineering team is middle age, white, males. There’s no diversity.

Cons

Too many 'managers', not enough 'workers'. Getting promoted is impossible if you aren't willing to kiss someone's butt.
