PACCAR -- Very reputable company producing high-quality products, but VERY conservative cultural work environment

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

High quality products, great long-term track record as a very profitable company. Stellar reputation (again due partly to high quality products). Very disciplined, professional atmosphere.

Cons

VERY conservative. Ever heard of the "Organization Man?" I've seen a number of younger employees experience the conservative culture and then move on to places with more relaxed atmospheres. Business formal (suit and tie) expected for males. Old fashioned "face time in the office" sometimes seems valued above actual performance. Due to performance review "grade inflation" a couple of years ago, the the Corporate office mandated that all employees be rated "Meets Expectations." Many decisions big and small come directly from the CEO.
