A below average company with an outdated mentality

Pros

Pension and 401k, very stable company. It's a good place to gain experience, then move on.

Cons

PACCAR is an extremely conservative company with very outdated company values and culture. At corporate, the old school mentality is VERY prominent. Executives have their own dining on the top floor while all other employees must eat at the cafeteria in the windowless basement. Professional attire 5 days a week, business casual days are a joke- They happen a few days out of the year, they are not announced, and it basically only means you do not need to wear a blazer/tie. Vacation policy, especially for new hires, is not competitive. Medical plan benefits are on the pricier side in comparison to other companies. Basic perks like coffee and ORCA Card are not provided. Getting new equipment is extremely tough, you basically have to wait until your computer/screens die. Salaries are very low and below average.
