Pros

The Initial Interview and people you meet are great. The Training outside of the plant is outstanding if you go to Greenville, SC. Pay is set as a "median" for the industry. Hardworking employees that actually do the production. Work-life balance is good for salary, but at the cost of wage employees.

Cons

Upper Management continues to make the wage force smaller each year, while forcing middle management to "drive progress" or make the wage population work more hours with less. Ardmore plant has practiced this until they have reduced the hiring population in their small town to little over 3%. Training is great, but practice of their Michelin Ethics is not in effect for senior leadership. Making a buck at the cost of the little man is the name of the game for this once great industrial giant. Quality and safety is preached as priority, but remains third behind profit and production.

Pros

It's a good opportunity for your career and future career ; The name of the company has a high resonance , which should allow you to have a small advantage at an interview for a different company ; The company imposes a multicultural vision all over the company ; The company's vision helps with the forming of the employees , and those who want to improve themselves will have a great opportunity to do it ! The company's " standards " of work regarding work ethics , health and safety and so on , are way above many other companies !

Cons

Because of the general company's view/vision , the company's thinking is somehow rigid , and a new idea might be easily dismiss even if management admits it's good ; Every change has to be run by the HQ in France , which means that every new change will take time till it gets review , approved and applied ; The company encourages a competition between different offices or factories , thing that makes the cultural and professional exchange hard , as every visitor/foreign visitor is vied as a competitor ; It's very hard to advance on the professional ladder even if you got the expertise for that job ! The salaries are not that attractive .
