Pros

Great brand, great colleagues; purchase Harley attires at staff price; nice offices; good benefits and compensation; amazing place if you are passionate about motorcycles; good work-life balance. Overall there's great company hardware.

Cons

Leadership do not have clear directions; slow in decision making or no decision at all; leaders only appear to care for staff as we approaches the annual engagement survey; recognition does not come from the heart; very political environment if you are a lead (manager) and above; quality is no longer top on the list; think twice before buying the bikes as you never know when it will cause you to lose a limb; a lot of cost-cutting since new CEO came on-board but the share prices kept dropping; people are afraid to speak out as they will be perceived to be not part of the group; projects constantly running behind schedule or over budget.

Pros

My hiring journey began with a seamless application process, followed immediately by an incredibly organized scheduling phase. The Harley team kept me informed every step of the way. I never had to guess where I stood, as next steps were always laid out clearly. During the interview experience the entire Harley team panel was professional, welcoming, and were genuinely interested in my background, making the interview feel like a collaborative conversation. The transparency throughout the process gave me complete confidence when I ultimately accepted the job offer.

Cons

I have no cons to call out based on my experience in the interview process.
