Pros

very good wages and benefits. i had the choice of where in the plant . as a maint. mech. i received training from older craftsmen.

Cons

i watched upper managment pitch fits like a child and he threw away millions of dollars in spare parts for the factory, try to fire people for not showing up to work after an ice storm had all major roads closed. they ran the best tire factory that goodyear had into the ground and closed the doors.

Pros

A lot of good people who do genuinely care. Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Sadly Goodyear is a declining company. The new C-suite talked a big game but company performance speaks otherwise. Market share/volume is declining quarter over quarter and the stock price is being killed. Many long tenured and loyal Goodyear employees have been laid off due to job outsourcing or plan closures. Before taking a job at Goodyear make sure to do your own research on the future of the company. Sadly for such a long and storied brand the future does seem bleak. Death by a thousand cuts….
