Pros

Working on great trucks that save lives. Most of the people are friendly and cooperative. Customer is good to work with. Pay is decent. Work pace is good, but only because Defense is slow in general.

Cons

Unstable - Defense workload is down. Parent company, Navistar Inc., is struggling, so no raises or bonuses for quite some time; outlook is not so great either. Minimal to no upward mobility. Morale is low. Systems are not stream-lined and connected; requires more effort to perform daily work. A great deal of talent is leaving for these cons.

Pros

- Has a cafeteria and Starbucks on site

Cons

- They are not a growing company, recently laid off about 400 people company wide due to financial reasons. There are more lay- offs to come. - There's no camaraderie, especially in Human Resources department. Everyone just goes right to there desk for 8 hours and then leaves for the day. No friendships or how was your weekend and, be aware, you will be thrown under the bus by others for them to get a leg up. - If you do not speak Spanish you will be terminated at some point. I was repeatedly told to start learning Spanish by my boss so she wouldn't have to speak English. I would also be in meetings where my boss and other coworker would start speaking Spanish knowing I couldn't understand what they were discussing and they would get annoyed when I would ask if they could speak in English during our meetings.
