      Decent Place to Work if You're in a Technical Function

      Senior compensation analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Relatively stable employment - even low performers are retained for long periods of time. Compensation package is average to better than average. If you are eligible for stock options, the stock has done very well in recent years.

      Cons

      Function w/in which I operated (HR) was neglected. HR Leadership lacked dynamism, global perspective. Businesses operated very independently and it was difficult to consolidate information at the HQ level (which was required for SEC reporting, for example). HRIS technology was almost completely lacking - much of the information was kept in disparate Access/Excel files and fraught with errors.

      Bureaucracy rules the workplace

      Quality engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work isn't difficult at all. In fact, there isn't really any work that gets done around there. Just show up roughly 40 hours a week, keep your head down, and hope you don't get laid off when management announces sweeping personnel reductions.

      Cons

      Horrible organization, bureaucracy stifles any chance of new ideas being put into action. Mountains of paperwork dominate the landscape. No actual engineering, just "contain, identify root cause, create action plan"...and by then the problem has likely fixed itself. The organization treats the bulk of its workforce, the poor hourly employees, horribly. This company is a bloated dinosaur, creaking under the weight of its own outdated infrastructure.

      A good company

      Product line manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Progressive company that stays ahead of the competition with regards to new product development.

      Cons

      Tied so tightly with the automotive sector that when the economy tumbles, so does employment and layoff become a common activity at BW.,
