      Many good people here, but egos were big and could get in the way

      Pros

      Stable with good products and seemingly good vision. There are some incredible people here. There were a wide range of challenges and room for growth and personal development. Benefits were pretty good as well.

      Cons

      Communication between departments was often lacking. Some big egos would get in the way and/or cause a toxic environment. Management would sometimes play along with this instead of trying to solve it. In some cases, new employees were not correctly trained for the systems and processes necessary to do their jobs correctly.

      Pros

      Excellent technology on motors, best in the world. Strong balance sheet with virtually no debts. Willing to invest in the best motor design and manufacturing technologies.

      Cons

      The Japanese management team at the headquarters in Kyoto has no idea on how to management a US or European companies. They asked a lot of questions repeatedly with no understanding of the business. They did not contribute much and just waste a lot of other people's time.
