Pros
Exciting product to work on. H-D's existing platforms are as exciting to work on as the new electric bikes that have been announced.
Cons
Downsides...the competition is high for promotions. The company employs top talent and therefore you have huge competition to get to the next level

Coworkers really made my job easy. Requardless of the disfunction of management .

Due to the company closing. Everything thing was o disfunctional. No concern for the emplyees. Employees like myself was expecting to retire in a few years. Our dreams where dashed.

I have been working at Harley-Davidson, Inc. full-time (More than 5 years)
Pros
Relaxed and mostly self-managed work environment
Fun product to work onCons
Benefits continue to be eliminated and work continues to grow due to international expansion (more work in other time zones)
There has been roughly one major strategic or organizational change, including layoffs, each year over recent yearsAdvice to Management
The yearly changes within the individual departments to meet the (relatively) consistent goals of the company seem haphazard and uninformed to anyone who has been through more than one or two. Perhaps it would be best to allow these changes time to integrate into the culture and operations of the teams before being abandoned.

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Harley-Davidson, Inc. full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Laid back
Slow and minimum work
No pressure from management
Above average market payCons
No vision
Leadership weak in knowledge and titled skill sets
Unprofessional employees
No one follows the HDFS core valuesAdvice to Management
Everyone is there to cruise and wait for retirement, even if its 30 years away. Companies processes are outdated, leadership cannot make hard decisions, and enrolls in company politics so subordinates are constantly in limbo. The work environment is outdated by 2 decades. Needs to change and modernize.

Modernize and integrate project management tools. Let engineers do engineering instead of project management work.

Pros
Great heritage - used to be a great employer who treated employees well
Cons
No trust. Directors and above cannot be honest with senior leadership. Ancient systems. Concerned about the companies future and H-D’s inability to reach the next gen. If electric doesn’t work, then ??
Advice to Management
Diversify - motorcycling is a shrinking market. Remember the Holiday Rambler or snowmobile days?
