Pros
- rewarding and fulfilling work - extremely talented, smart people everywhere (all depts) - employees are high-quality people with great values/integrity - competitive salaries - amazing and affordable healthcare options - 5% no-questions-asked goes to personal retirement (pension) - 401k match is 7.5% if employee contributes 10 - 5+7.5 is 12.5% match when maxed - financially stable company with extremely few layoffs - low turnover
Cons
- CEO is not a public speaker - exec team does not interact with teams/depts - exec team does not provide vision first hand - vision and values are stale - very flat organizational structure - As a former outdoor eng employee, Garmin doesn't support some of the initiatives that REI or Patagonia might. Show you care and give back as a company!
