Pros

You get some discounts when you buy Ford cars, but some people buy Ford cars cheaper even without employee discounts.

Cons

The company think they provide competitive benefits to employees, but some employees know they are not because their spouses work for competitors. The company advertises like employees are very satisfied, but many of my coworkers don't agree. First, they highly regard line-workers (UAW) than competitors, but hard-working regular salaried employees are treated with a drop-in-a-bucket annual bonuses. Second, their employee discounts are laughable. My friend who is not a Ford employee can buy a Ford car for cheaper price. Third, employees' vacation days are one week less than the competitor in Warren, MI. If hired, you start with two weeks' vacation days, but the new hires at the competitor in Warren, MI start with three weeks.

Pros

Interesting people, complex problems in a fascinating industry

Cons

Where to start? -RTO has been absolutely bungled. Not enough room for people, nowhere to sit, often people are going into the office to sit alone in a conference room and take video calls they could have just done from home -Strategy is rated frequently as a low-performing division, as is Corp Dev. Pressure from the top is translating to frequent cuts. They are culling good people to try to show they are "making progress" -No real development pipeline to exit corp dev/partnerships/strategy. Nobody in Ford wants to take these people as transfers. This is where people go to rot for the rest of their careers. Many people are trying to frantically exit this division and few are getting any internal traction. -new MBA tuition program is a joke. Basically nonexistent
