Pros

The Benefits and PTO are two of the greatest things about Recaro. You receive 5 weeks worth of PTO and this company pays for your health insurance. This makes your work/life balance a lot easier to achieve. It also takes away the burden of having to calculate how much you REALLY make once you take out what you're paying for insurance. If you are very sickly or have a family, the benefits are a major win. I also like how lax and comfortable the environment is. There is very little micro- managing which is a huge plus. Last, but not least, I LOVE the company activities. The sports and picnics and overall comradery helps keep up morale at the workplace.

Cons

Each department has a silo mentality, almost as if they are a part of separate mini companies instead of one company. Our KPI's work in direct opposition to each other and people hardly want to compromise at the risk of jeopardizing their yearly cockpit goals. Because you have to work closely with various departments, this makes it very stressful and difficult to do minor tasks. Occasionally there is preferential treatment amongst colleagues depending on who the manager "likes" and there should be fair and just treatment amongst all.

Pros

Great benefits 100% payed (no including copays & $250 deductible), work is easy generally speaking, 8 - 10 hr days Pay is ok for single people with no commitments Temperature controlled work place, generally speaking. We use to have family events but all that was taken away last fall surprisingly after a hug experience provided for unnecessary footwear & monitor for dock arrivals.

Cons

Although Recaro's health care package is the primary reason for the majority of their employees staying, at some point it won't be enough. There is still a huge lack in communication. There is a false sense of community connection especially after all the stunts they pulled last fall "but they didn't lay off employees" -political statement-. Leadership & management don't truly listen to employees otherwise, questions would be really answered instead of left as a blow off. Seems like a good 70% of what Recaro does after the sale is reactive, not proactive.
