Pros

Discontinued employee pensions but, according to a senior executive, "Honda's decision wasn't as bad as that of other companies?" Still have health benefits.....for now.

Cons

Certain vital administrative functions are denigrated and de-resourced to the point of nonexistence. Spending half a billion dollars on HondaJet. Good luck making a profit on that... Spending hundreds of millions on F1...again. Obsolete enterprise systems patched together with standalone spreadsheets makes effective project management and coordination virtually impossible.

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for hands down. Alabama really is behind the times on pay and benefits in my experience. Honda in Alabama is an exception to that rule. We work a lot of hours, especially in my role, but that’s great for me personally. One of the best work environments I’ve worked in (AC in plant), great cafeteria, etc. There’s even a free gym down the street for employees. Besides the great pay, great pay progression, and plenty of overtime, this company goes above and beyond to provide great insurance, 401k, production based bonuses, 2 scheduled shutdowns per year, and pto. More than that, the culture at Honda is centered on building up the associates in any way possible. I’ve genuinely never worked for a company like this, and hope they continue improving the culture they’ve created thus far.

Cons

Can be congested at times, there are a lot of people in there, but that’s just par for the course. Also, leaving and entering the parking lot is pretty wild sometimes.
