Pros

Bikes, customers, history, casual dress code

Cons

Leadership, leadership, leadership, leadership, leadership. Simply, this company has terrible leadership. Over the last 5 or so years, they managed to fire, lay-off, drive away, humiliate, disappoint, demoralize, antagonize, insult and who knows what else to hundreds of very, very good people who are no longer with the company. Engineering leadership has been especially poor, from the Senior VP of product development, who is not even an engineer, to the VP, who created an environment that even he could not work in so he took a "voluntary" early retirement, incompetent managers, who should not be entrusted to manage professionals, and I could go on and on... Bottom line, if you are an engineer, do not expect a career at Harley-Davidson, as the company does not value good engineering, professionalism, and other values that come with it.
