Great place to work

Pros

Garmin is a great place to work. The benefits are fantastic. Management offers great flexibility in schedules for people with families. Olathe, KS is a great place to live.

Cons

Advancement can be slow. Tenure and number of years of experience seems to be valued over self-motivation and work ethic.

Pros

Occasionally there are some fun and interesting projects to work on. There are also some really incredible people to work with.

Cons

Culture supports avoidance of accountability - it's much easier to blame someone else for failure than accept responsibility for your contribution to it. People get promoted based on who they know, not necessarily because they've earned it. At one time, it wasn't like this.
