Pros

Nothing really that would be a pro for me.

Cons

Working on a team at a supplier company that almost directly reports to the automotive OEM gives the OEM program managers a lot of power over supplier employees. Additionally, it meant that all of my work required a lot of scrutiny to ensure it was meeting standards. In the specific role (Design Release Engineer), I felt like I was doing mostly negotiation and paperwork, and not very much actual designing or engineering. I felt like I was not gaining any worthwhile experience nor did I see any career growth path that I desired.

Pros

This used to be a great place to work but now unable to come up with anything good...maybe the dining area? Parking has gotten better (see cons).

Cons

What many of the most recent reviews are not mentioning is that they've eliminated entire departments from their Canton facilities in favor of relocating the positions to Mexico. Every few months, a massive downsizing will occur followed by promises that it will be the last time. A few months later...repeat. Recruiters are especially not to be trusted. Will say anything to build up your interest then hide behind policy and feign ignorance as they change the terms of their job offers. I've seen it twice. I'm trying to get out but the market is flooded with people fleeing this place.
