Pros
Ford is a great place to work for good work-life balance. There is also a high level of diversity amongst employees, and people from all different cultures work here. Most people are friendly and welcoming. Everyone makes you feel like you're welcome and wanted, even if its fake at times.
Cons
There's way too much red tape in the process. The company is full of bureaucracy. The worst problem is that higher management does not know what it is doing. Every 1-2 years, there tends to be a new mantra for higher management. Everyone moves in that direction, then two years later, its gone - discarded - kaput! Then, a new manager comes in; with a new mantra. There's a lot of "waste" (i.e. TPS muda) in every process.
