Pros

Good pay/benefits, fun job, opportunity.

Cons

Biggest con is management, seems like management don't like to feel inferior to their subordinates. If you do something that's good they will try and claim that idea as their own, if you say something that makes your manager look bad or stupid they will try to twist it and make you feel like you were in the wrong even tho they were. They choose favorites based off of how threatening they are to their position. If an individual doesn't pose a threat to them they will favorite this person, but if you are a threat to their position they will continuously find things that you do wrong to keep you looking bad.

Pros

Pros: Decent pay and company benefits. 401k match is very much the best. Torc was best known for amazing people and co-workers barring upper management especially ELT members. The business case is still amazing with strong backup from Daimler.

Cons

Once gem of a company is completely misguided by the ELT members. Lot of ego and employee have now fear from retaliation. Very poor communication and everything is very secretive. Lot of times decisions are made based on “Personal Reasons” than using data and where industry is really headed towards. People are not respective of what it means to be backed up by Daimler especially in this market situation and lot of Autonomous players are out of the “Juice” so enjoy ELT members till it lasts.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits event though my yearly salary was significantly less than new hires. I'm talking 25k less. Overall good work colleagues except for the management.

Cons

Like the title says. Lots of favoritism and nepotism. Easier daily assignments for the favorites. Extremely poor communication between management and the grunts. This resulted in unnecessary amounts of stress projected onto staff while already performing a stressful job. A smooth talker will go a long way with this organization. They will act like your opinions mater but they absolutely do not to them. Even to the point that if they don't like you or your opinions you could be demerited and even skipped on yearly pay increases as I was twice. They completely forgot discussions between lowers and management and even worse will lie to you about what was discussed when prompted again. Anything to make themselves look good. Overall I rate this place a capital F. Do not be fooled by their smoke and mirrors.
