Pros

The immediate team I work with are nice.

Cons

Salary is low for the position. They say it is above average but the statistics are inflated because of people on pre 2012 contracts who get substantially more for the same role. If you joined post 2012 you get non of the benefits. 4 days a week in the office. The office is dated in most areas. No free coffee or any incentive to come in. Canteen food is very average. Office location in the middle of nowhere with no amenities near the office. General work culture has taken a real hit in recent years with lots of job cuts and no progression.

Pros

You get to say you work at Ford Motor Company

Cons

The only way they'll view you as a longterm investment is if they got you young right out of school- as an FCG or from CCS. They reward backstabbing and gossiping in the name of "survival of the fittest." They enable and encourage people like this to rot the company from the inside out. The people who are rewarded are those who can best cater to the emotionally unstable people in positions of leadership. They can't even lead- they either micromanage, or are passive aggressive in hopes that you can eventually read their minds. Neither is productive. Micromanaging wears away at anyone's agency and confidence. And passive aggressiveness doesn't move projects forward nor provide clarity. Take the time and energy you spend gossiping about the lost employee, and just communicate to them directly. That would yield faster results, and reduces stress for everyone involved in the long run. I don't understand managers who will gossip to anyone and everyone about you, but then claim they don't have time to talk to you directly and resolve issues.
