Pros

Had a cafeteria on site. One of the best things I like was in spring when the fawns were born.

Cons

High rate of lay offs medical plan was crappy and the worst management I have ever had.The company is ok I guess, was constantly loud construction work always going on and the health plan was crappy. This was one of the worst companies I worked for there was a lot of disorganization. I would not work for them ever again. I was harassed by the other SQA's for gender. They were 2 males and I was female. They would belittle me in front of 15 coworkers we were over for incoming inspection.

Pros

Benefits were average, good training, co-workers were awesome, good learning experience.

Cons

Management was horrible, they do not care about their employees, they are only looking after their backs. I was hired for a position requiring a skill set which they knew nothing about & basically they tried to get as much information out of me to get the job done, they had me writing proceedures & so forth, I was basically digging my own grave for a layoff. I saw the writing on the wall, so I merely gave them minimal information. Hopefully they will dig their own grave because most of the critical information they wanted I kept to myself. Also raises were minimal as I expected from reading this web site. I am assuming this company does not get it, the word gets around & no one will be looking for a job within this company knowing that the employees are being treated this way. Good luck Flex because I won't be going back, as well as all my friends & contacts that I have made aware of your actions. This company is heartless & do not care about their employees. I hope you don't waste your time with this employer, because that is what you will be doing....

Pros

Flex is one of if not the largest contract manufacturing company in the world. The company takes great pride in its employees. The benefit package is very good, and the salary is competitive. Because the company is so large and varied it is possible to move to different positions without having to leave the company. Management is proactive and I believe they are incentivized to promote their staff members to higher positions.

Cons

The primary con, is that the company is so large that sometimes you can get lost and forgotten about. It is hard to make a name for yourself or to get your accomplishments recognized by the right people.
