Pros

They care about the quality of their work and product as well as the quality of their employees.

Cons

HR tends to be rather like a sorority and they are amazingly nice to potential employees, but once you're hired they try to have as little contact with you as possible.

Pros

Garmin is a fun, innovative company that does it's best to be open to progressive ideas. The work that I have done at the company has been very interesting as the GPS navigational devices market is blooming and starting to get a lot of attention. The company puts a priority on hiring very balanced employees who have technical skills, social skills, and practical skills. I feel like this helps a lot with team cohesion and in creating user focused products.

Cons

It is not very simple to transfer within the company to other business sectors. It would be great to have more R & D within the subsidiary companies of Garmin.
