Pros

Zebra has been the best place that I have ever worked. Lower management is wonderful. I love our products.

Cons

Legacy Zebra employees are being made to feel like second-class citizens compared to former Motorola employees. This has not been the case in all other purchases of companies in the past. Before, the other company was molded to fit into Zebra. Now the former Zebra is being molded to fit into the old Motorola. In 2016, legacy Zebra employees will not get a merit raise OR a bonus, however, the former Motorola employees will get up to a 10% bonus *and* merit raises. Legacy Zebra employees are eligible for a 5% bonus in 2017, half of what the former Motorola employees will get. An announcement came out recently, probably because of backlash, that legacy Zebra employees will get a 2% bonus (still no merit raise) - while the former Motorola employees will still get their 10% bonus and merit raise. Better than nothing, I guess, but still a slap in the face.

Pros

the people and friendships you make!

Cons

if it wasn’t for the people, this place would be more miserable than it already is. - Everyone above you talks behind your back and does not care to see you succeed unless they get something beneficial out of it. - Upper management uses managerial tactics like it’s 1996 - They have favorites they protect and it shows. - The lack of empathy from upper management is wild “hey, I broke my leg I won’t be on the call, I’m in the ER.” “by you’ll still be at the meeting tomorrow right?” -SEVERELY underpaid - Preach diversity and inclusion but have nothing to show for it day to day Everyone here steps on eachother to climb and it’s sick! But management also fosters this kind of community so!
