Pros

Innovative designers; some really great people; good salary; flexible with time

Cons

No retained departmental knowledge of how internal workflows operate makes it very difficult for new employees to effectively do their jobs. This wouldn't be a problem if one could innovate new procedures, but this is not possible in a very large and established manufacturer that is not very agile. Very hierarchical which makes hiring entrepreneurial minded employees a mis-match. Also, too many contractors--kills morale.

Pros

The compensation and benefits package appeared competitive compared to similar roles in the industry. The team members I met during the interview process were generally personable, professional, and knowledgeable about their work. The company also presents itself as collaborative and employee-focused during recruitment.

Cons

The hiring and onboarding process lacked organization, consistency, and internal alignment. Communication between Talent Acquisition, hiring management, and leadership appeared disconnected, resulting in conflicting information regarding fundamental terms of employment. After progressing through multiple interview rounds and receiving both verbal and written offers, critical details surrounding the position’s reporting expectations and work location changed unexpectedly immediately prior to the anticipated start date. The situation was handled poorly, with inconsistent messaging from different parties and limited accountability for the confusion. Attempts to professionally discuss potential solutions and compromises were met with resistance and ultimately resulted in the offer being rescinded. The overall experience reflected a lack of coordination between departments and created significant concern regarding internal communication, leadership alignment, and employee onboarding practices. For a large, established company, the process felt surprisingly unstructured and reactive.
