Polish exterior but rather dull and uninspired inside

Pros

Flex’s gave me a job (less than a year). Wasn't welcomed.

Cons

Crappy benefits for large company that size with crappy bureaucracy. It’s people acting to protect their jobs regardless of anyone else at the bottom. They try and persuade you that they are forward looking company looking to compete in turnkey engineering. That they are high tech and cool people to work with. Management was very ambitious with that thought and right people it probably would’ve work but it was marred by poor execution and lack of hiring top managers (executing visions) and workers willing to put plan into actions. As an ex-Flex employee job was routinely boring, our leaders didn’t inspire confidence and just not fun working there. Then we met our demise as a group so they can avoid paying final retention bonuses. Oh well you get what you paid for. My advise don’t work there unless you like S&M or you already in the higher ups or mindless worker bees.

Pros

I've worked for other large (multi national companies) as well as start ups and I have never seen a company so disorganized. Days to get a computer - still none of the systems set up on it. Hiring Manager wouldn't give me the time of day. Spent the first few days of my employment just sitting around waiting for training or direction. No onboarding or orientation. For a large company, every employee should feel welcomed and should be properly trained and know where they fit within this space. Actively looking for a new job, I can't imagine spending any more time in a place where every individual thinks about themselves and not about the team.

Cons

Started my base on high. Good comp plan.
