        Starting pay is lower than I thought but the benefits heavily make up for it. You grow quick too

          Pros

          Good 401k contribution match No business casual dress code Gym at the hq

          Cons

          The only people who stay at Garmin are the ones who can handle high amounts of stress, always. The mental health well-being program/emails are a joke. You will not see an extra dime even if your product sells really well. There is zero motivation to do an great job unless you want to climb up the ladder to a management job. In quarterly meetings, management will do their best to dodge questions about salary increases in the same breath as them telling you that "x segment grew 25% beating all previous records." If you show that you will bend over backwards for the company, they will take that and make it the new expectation for you without adjusting pay. 90%+ white men. I've been in meetings where there were two non-white people and the managers asked if we did a good job being diverse.

        Recently I had an interview with Lowes Home Improvement and the interviewers came up wearing sweatshirts. I was professionally dressed up with the suit on. I found this weird. I have never had interviewers come up in sweatshirts during the interview. What do you think, about how to dress up when having an interview?

        Based on your experience, what preceded the job offer email: have you received that relatively fast, or you’ve been waiting in silence? For how long?
