Pros

Garmin hires increasable people to work there. As most people that see Garmin from the outside knows the quality and reputation of the core products. Excellent benefits - I have never worked anywhere where the benefits were as good as Garmin. But, there is a cost for everything... Stable work environment.

Cons

Cheap - that is the best word to describe the company. Salaries are not competitive and the stress level is quite high for certain positions.

Pros

Great, and I mean great benefits.

Cons

Poor local culture, everybody is in their own clicks and don't deviate from them. Not a huge amount of office friendliness. Not many team building exercises, and qa gets left out of alot. If you're not a developer, you will have a yard time socially. Coffee is the worst I've had at a company ever. Return to office was not handled right, and the wfh policies were written very vague by a local manager, but what they actually wanted was very specific and was not communicated at all(avg of 1 per month over the course of a year). This lead to a problem where I was denied a wfh request to grieve a dead pet because I used wfh 2 weeks earlier to register a new car ( that I got solely for work commute)
