Business Outlook
Pros
The coworkers are the best part of Makita USA. You can be hired on with no previous experience. Decent entry-level pay, and good benefits when full-time.
Cons
Top-down management style invites no feedback from employees. Many internal decisions may make little sense to those affected. Pay increases are typically minimal to nonexistent for the majority of employees, especially under Operations. You may be frequently told to "take ownership" with little real responsibility actually given to you.
