Pros

Flextronics offers quite a bit of opportunity for growth and development for those who earn it. I've been promoted twice in 2.5 years. They also offer many global project teams for employees to participate in. That said, it's not in a clear, career-mapping, kind-of way. Usually, promotions seem to be a result of an individuals hard work.

Cons

The biggest downside is the amount of time spent working at Flextronics. A 40-hour work week would be a vacation. Flextronics is pretty flexible about working from home at times (not preferred) when you have sick children or appointments. But most workers (not just managers) put in a lot of hours each week.

Pros

Health, dental, vision, and 401(k) were quite good.

Cons

Flex tolerates a toxic work culture from their most senior leaders. My director, literally, yelled at me daily, usually throughout the day. He physically grabbed me and forced me in the direction he wanted me to move. He threatened to fire me or replace me at least once a week. I went to the then director of HR who did absolutely nothing. After she was let go I went to her successor who told me there was no record of me speaking with HR before. And she did nothing. Unable to tolerate the work environment, I left. The company doesn't take safety seriously. We had shelving collapse resulting in an employee needing medical attention. The person tasked with designing and building storage has no training, no mechanical background, and no analysis is being performed to validate if the storage can hold 1,000+ pounds. There's no budget for professionally designed storage and, again, I was threatened for raising this as a concern. I learned today this same director is continuing to use me as a scapegoat despite me no longer working there.
