Business Outlook
Pros
Excellent benefits, pay, and vacation. The company will provide you the training and tools you need to get the job done. It's enjoyable to see the product you work on rolling down the road. It's one of the few companies that still make products in the US. Most of your co-workers are good people.
Cons
Too much control from the parent company, Volvo AB, very few Americans in leadership. The size of the company lends itself to extensive bureaucracy, processes, and politics. You have to be part of the "in crowd" to be promoted to management. The company does not value an engineer's experience, opinion, or talent.
