Pros

There are many classes you can take to advance you knowledge. 50% tuition reimbursement is nice as well. Work on quality products.

Cons

Sub-par equipment for the job. No work/life balance. No flexible schedule. 1950s work environment. Uncompetitive pay with very high expectations on employee performance. Aggravated employees.

Pros

My coworkers were great and have met many close friends

Cons

Clueless managers do as they are told and don't think Promotions aren't given out on merit only on years with the company Outdated culture Compensation is weak compared to like companies Health care is expensive In the IT division most managers were never developers or have Computer background yet they are making the decisions All the work is going to India Hiring more H1B1 employees because PACCAR doesn't want to pay competitive wages and these employees are basically hostages All the talented developers are leaving for better opportunities then PACCAR downplays the individuals contributions Individual goals are set to match with the directors goals so the directors receive their incentive compensation goals. When anyone slightly important visits the Information Technology Division the employees must dress up (like this is fooling anyone). I have more but my fingers are getting tired.

Great place for dedicated employees

Pros

Great co-workers and lots of opprotunity if you are dedicated and willing to work hard. Goals are clear and results are rewarded.

Cons

Conservative corporate image, dress code, and work hours policy. Employees are expected to acheive goals with limited resources.
