Honda – “Cares for their people”

Pros

Good place to start your career and understand what a well run automotive company does to stay on top, Honda has a great benefit package and a lot of vacation time right from the start. Great overall policies and procedures. Free gym, classes and the largest internal corporate hockey league in N.A.

Cons

excessive hours (I worked almost 3 months with two days off) and no incentive to move up the food chain - you lose some overtime benefits and are still expected to work the hours. The Human Resources staff treats employees as numbers and is generally hard to deal with. Top management is strong, but middle management is weak.

Advice to Senior Management

Need to introduce better incentives or programs for employees to develop their careers to avoid losing talent
