A third rate player masquerading as a first rate champion.
Pros
Great campus, gymnasium, and cafeteria for those who work in the corporate headquarters. For the rest, work conditions are horrible.
Cons
1. Sub-par human capital - Not a great place for people who want to get anywhere in life. The sheer mass stupidity of people will drown a person of reasonable intelligence. It's a place where stupid people make incredibly stupid decisions at an incredibly fast pace. 2. Lack of structure - It's defined by a staggering paucity of systems, procedures, teamwork, and discipline. 3. Horrible culture - Old school, conservative, passive-aggressive, suburban culture. When the new CEO was asked what culture he'd like to espouse after the company's 2012 debacle, he stumbled before responding that culture begins with people. So, there is still a total lack of accountability at the top, even after the change in management. 4. Old boys' club - New executive management is a mix of GM and Ford rejects. Sycophancy still rules the roost. No real diversity to speak of anywhere in the company. In general, if you're not a tall white guy, and in rare circumstances, a good looking white woman, you are not going anywhere. 5. Non-existent training and employee development - While career opportunities are already limited, there aren't any real learning or developmental opportunities for personal growth either. To add to that, middle ranks are filled with sub-par, incompetent managers who can't mentor. It's always about the company and never about the people, Employees are viewed like animals in a slaughterhouse, whose only purpose in life is to provide meat. Human Resources is a policing unit, not a service department. 6. Shocking compensation - Salaries are way below par, and benefits, especially health benefits, have gone into the toilet. 7. Ethical quagmire - Products are routinely released without proper testing and development, despite the 2012 debacle. Management talks a good,game, but it's never about the customers.
