Pros

The only pros! It was a regular 9-5 job with weekends off.

Cons

DO NOT WORK HERE! Plain and simple, this is a miserable place to work and you will regret ever applying. Every ridiculous “rumor” you have heard about Paccar is true. The seniors leadership team is full of managers who don’t care about anyone except themselves. When things don’t work, instead of finding solutions, they’re too busy trying to find someone to blame and throw under the bus. They don’t appreciate any work you do; you’re basically just a number to them. It’s almost better to be lazy at Paccar. You get away with it, disciplinary action is never taken, and you still get paid. There has been extreme turnover in the last two years. To add insult to injury, they take at least 2+ months to fill any position. So if someone leaves your department, good luck staying afloat. You’re stuck doing their job for at least a couple months...and that’s if they decide to fill the role. Often times, they conclude they can do without so their tasks get distributed among whoever is left. It’s absolutely awful! When job postings go up, don’t bother applying. Management only posts them for protocol. In their minds, they already know who they will promote. If you’re not part of their “Master Plan”, you will not get the job no matter how well you do in the interviews. Lastly, I would highly discourage you from applying here if you’re non-white, female, you outwardly display your religious beliefs. Anything that shows you’re different is more grounds for management to treat you like an outcast who is not worthy of any respect. I hope every unhappy person here finds the courage to apply for new jobs. Paccar is not worth the stress and unhappiness.
