Pros
1. Good experience. The positions at PACCAR are structured and well-defined. Employees learn how to do their jobs correctly and well. Managers similarly learn how to measure and control the parts of the organization that they are responsible for. 2. Great benefits. 401K, vacation, holidays, defined benefit pension, medical, dental, etc, etc.
Cons
1. Promotional opportunities often appear to go to those best "connected" and not necessarily most competent. 2. Communication of job performance seems to be incomplete and meaningless. A great review does not ensure promotion to the next level. 3. Although there is an employee of the month program, there are few other forms of recognition, especially from a monetary perspective.
