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

Pros

Great work life balance and culture. If you want to work at a place that will provide a low stress, flexible position with amazing people, this place is no doubt one of the best in that area.

Cons

Pay is low compared to other companies in the area and the cost of living in the area is high. They seem to be outsourcing jobs to cut costs, so job security is not the best right now.
