Pros

All BUs are team oriented and positive. Purchasing group needs help.

Cons

Purchasing group seems misguided and is in need of help. The cumbersome processes, lack of effective IT systems and rules of engagement they set with how other functional groups engage with the supplier reduces efficiencies in getting deliverable to final customer. Because of this buyers are forced into clearical and administrative mode vs. Strategict project management.

Pros

I had a good experience at Yazaki although it was short term. The hours were normal (9-5) and the management was fairly flexible.

Cons

Pay was well below competitor's.

Outdated Company with outdated processes and outdated Managers

Pros

- Vacations - Not too demanding - Laid back environment

Cons

Professionly prepared employees are not well appreciated because Yazaki won't pay for their value and/or they may know a lot more than their Bosses. No professional growth. People have to wait up to 20-25 years to become a Manager. Managers are chosen based on their lack of skills, to avoid standout more than their bosses. I had never seen a Company with too many people doing nothing.
