Svantaggi
- No technical leadership in US office. - Most engineering decisions made in UK parent office. - Company does not plan ahead; leads to costly business trips and rush orders. - Less PTO and holidays than most US automotive companies. - No trust within company; information is withheld on a regular basis, lots of internal secrets unless you are a part of the inner circle. - Advertised as "flexible schedule" but upper management keeps close tabs on everyone coming and going, as well as where they are in the building during the day. - HR Policies were nonexistent. Issues were handled on a case-by-case basis with no consistency. Led to unfair treatment and favoritism. - Company originally promised training but did not provide any after multiple requests. - They rarely fire people for poor job performance. (Could be a pro if you want to slack off) - If you are a "yes-man" with a niche skill, they will work you to the bone. - Upper management does not take kindly to employees respectfully questioning decisions. - Company culture is work comes before life.
