Vantaggi
Working at Panasonic was a great experience that I will forever value. They gave my career a jump-start and the opportunities for development are endless. It's a high-paced environment and a lot of people which make it feel like it's own community. There's never a shortage of work. Management is improving with the adoption of strong leaders that challenge the way the company has been run for years.
Svantaggi
The decision-making skills of management are sub-par. HR is terrible and the security department exists to harass and police employees. HR and upper management align in too many ways in a way that makes every single employee feel powerless if you're on anyone's bad side. The company claims that they care about their people, but shuts you out and avoids you if you're even the slightest inconvenience. They're whole objective is to make money. They also give percentage-based raises and don't bother to understand the effects of it (i.e. they would hesitate to give someone with a $50K salary a 10% raise to keep up with cost of living or based on great performance, but are perfectly okay giving someone else with a $100K salary a 5% raise with mediocre performance, despite them being the same amount in quantity).
