Pros

One of the only benefits of PACCAR is job stability. I enjoy working with most of my co-workers.

Cons

limited resources, poor technology, unreasonable managers, no power unless you are a senior manager, negative environment, everything is a fire drill

Pros

Good place if you want to stay at your level. Relatively safe job.

Cons

A lot of inaction when it would be necessary. Too many tolerance toward those who don't disserve to work there.

Pros

A good place to work to get experience that looks good on your resume.

Cons

Forced overtime without pay (refuse to work it and you are #1 for the next layoff). Uneven project workloads, far better to meet a deadline on an easy project than miss a deadline on a difficult project, management doesn't seem to know the difference. Engineering salaries $25K below industry standard. Mid-manager pay $30K below industry standard No raises for the past 4 1/2 years, for anyone. Latest employee handbook revision redesignated many former benefits as "discretionary". You can be forced to cut a vendors throat, is it any wonder, employees are treated the same. The better performing employees are leaving.
