Pros

Salary was good. Benefits were good. Everyone was upbeat and professional when times were good. They have a new beautiful building that is state-of-the art.

Cons

When times were bad, everyone went scrambling for their life vests and started throwing people under the bus. Upper management made some terrible decisions about the product.

Inconsistent Employee Treatment, No Room to Move Up

Business Outlook

Pros

- Company seems to be turning around, the worst should be behind Navistar - There are some opportunities to take more leadership due to high attrition - Good managers do exist, unfortunately there aren't enough - Nice fitness center at WHQ

Cons

- Some groups are getting raises and promotions, while others are not; thanks upper management - After "flattening" the organization, there are far fewer management positions available; most product development engineers report directly to chief engineers now - Non-competitive salaries - Average of 1-2 people leaving the company a day (as of early September 2013) - I know one manager who can't book a room in Outlook - "It makes good cents to print in black and white" signs are in every copy room, but ironically printed in color and laminated
