Pros

Pay is decent if compared with other suppliers. Good flow of new business. Benefits are decent.

Cons

No work life balance exists. Emplyees are stretched thin and expected to work long hours with no appreciation for it. Some groups may experience it and others not. I guess it depends on your group. Future is in low cost countries. Your own US managers are hurting their own economy by outsourcing jobs.

Disillusioned about German management on US based

Pros

HSA and Healthcare plan. 401K match. The engineers, finance, accounting, and other support groups are some of the most dedicated people I've ever worked with.

Cons

Monthly Pay Periods like Europe. Almost every decision has to go through Germany and get their approval. High quality US based open positions getting filled by foreigners instead of Americans. For example engineering positions in Deer Park being filled by Mexican nationals and Continental (a German entity) is obtaining permanent work visas for foreign nationals. Too many mid level managers from Germany who have no direct reports but delay projects constantly to give the appearance they're contributing to the company. No remote work from home or flex schedules allowed. Upper management frowns on this
