Pros

Company is fiscally sound and has been for many, many years. If you work for PACCAR, do your job well and keep your nose clean job security is yours.

Cons

No flexible scheduling in my department. Would like to work at least 1 weekend day for the opportunity of getting administrative responsibilities accomplished.

Pros

Products you're proud to be associated with, solid financial performance year after year, some decent benefits including a well-funded pension plan. High employee turnover creates lots of opportunities for others to get promoted.

Cons

Cronyism and nepotism are rampant. Don't even think about working here if you have facial hair. And you'd better love to wear a suit and tie to work every day. Managment spends a majority of their time locked in conference rooms preparing for the next presentation to senior managers.

Pros

Good experience, solid performing company financially. Lots of opportunities to fix things and drive change, however, your pressure to drive the change is thwarted by a micromanagement culture.

Cons

Personnel development, leadership practices, culture. Poor on boarding and HR experience. Company is very set in its ways and hard to drive the change you want. lots of pressure from above for results but very little "roadblock" removal from above to allow consistent repeatable results.
