Pros

Good people working very hard to try and grow their business.

Cons

The Corp has sucked the life out of our division and has not put any money back into it for sustainability or growth. The Corp has no long term vision. Quarterly results for shareholders is the extent of their ability to manage. Wages have essentially been frozen for the last 10 years. Unless you are one of the top dogs who get huge bonuses.

Pros

Compensation is higher than the norm...t not to mention good benefits, but that's about it. Some of the plant managers are great to work for, and most of your managerial cohorts will be well-qualified people who know what they are doing.

Cons

Toxic political atmosphere at most locations and at Corporate office. Blatant favortism and not forthcoming with hourly employees regarding major changes that are coming up. Extremely high voluntary (and involuntary) turnover in the upper management ranks, especially at the director level or above. Promotions are very much given based on whom one knows instead of what one knows. Probably the scariest part of working here is the almost-daily news that yet another Dana plant is closing, downsizing, or moving to Mexico to "restructure the North American manufacturing footprint", as the "Restructuring Director" so tactfully put it.. Claim they promote diversity within their company, but if you are a minority or female, you can pretty much forget ending up on the Board.

Pros

They are always striving to do what's best for the company. They do care about what happens to the people that are employed there and attempt to do the right thing for everyone. When the company announced plant closures it gave employees a great deal of time to find jobs and helped them to find jobs in the area.

Cons

With the economy and the failing auto industry there was only so much that could be done to save the plants that were closed. I do not think that the Chap 11 restructuring plan will save them.
