      Pros

      The benefits are fantastic and the people you work with make the job worthwhile. It's an interesting industry because Garmin is a part of a lot of different markets. The pay is okay, but it makes it more worthwhile because of the great benefits. Internal communication between departments is excellent, and that really pays off.

      Cons

      If you are hourly, there are a LOT of rules about how to use your time, which gets hard to work around in your personal life. It's very susceptible to reactions in the consumer market so that is scary to deal with sometimes such as a recent layoff.

      Pros

      Great benefits, interesting work, products known the world over. One of the best work atmospheres I could imagine. Casual dress code. Employees are treated as competent adults and not children to be micromanaged. There are nice employee perks like getting a voucher for a turkey at thanksgiving, free tickets to worlds of fun in the summer, and a really nice winter formal event. Meeetings and training are generally kept to a minimum and are only held to the extent that they are really useful.

      Cons

      This doesn't happen as often in my department, but there is occasionally lots of overtime in some departments.
