Fulfilling Nighmares of Corporate Enslavement - Continuous Improvement Specialist Harley-Davidson, Inc. Employee Review

Pros

Outstanding benefits including a world class pension if you were fortunate enough to get hired before August 2006, otherwise a marginal added 401K contribution. Excellent compensation and fair opportunities for movement and advancement. Annual bonus (STIP) and 401K matching are generous

Cons

Moving quickly to a culture of fear, retribution and good old boy "yes man and woman". Watch your back if your manager, director, VP or CEO are dumber than you are. They don't like having their authority or decisions questioned. That wasn't the case during the Wandell and prior eras but seems to be the case in the Levatich era. "One step forward and two steps back" approach to running a business.

Pros

- Flexibility with schedule allowing for a good work/life balance - Great people to work with - Brand recognition

Cons

-Leadership is in a constant state change which also provides instability of the strategy. - New CEO brings "new" products and promises but if you look back over the past few 5 year strategic plans, very little changes. - Financially struggling to make a profit - Employees are not rewarded based on performance. IF there is a financial increase to base pay everyone gets the same amount. There are no merit increases. And they haven't paid out a bonus in a couple of years.
