Pros

There were great coworkers, but they all got layoff, the company conduct massive layoff in low profile so it doesnt appear in the news. All my coworkers got layoff and now they are all contractors, contractors run the business now

Cons

If you dont get a friend you will end doing janitor work, I survived 2 massive layoff and they keep it quiet from the news. You get hired for a job and you end doing something totally different and I consider myselft lucky, I dont know if I will survive another layoff

Pros

The company is evolving. In a journey that started in 2012, Bridgestone is moving from a segmented and siloed organization to an integrated operating company. The leadership team is dedicated to building around the people and the cultural values of the company, and hiring new people who embrace these values, while also being dedicated to the continued evolution of the business. The work is very meaningful, with the ability to drive real change for the organization. Lastly, I really enjoy the team that I work with. Great people, dedicated to driving change, collaboration, and very little politics.

Cons

Bridgestone can improve with employment development and training opportunities. Lots of great hands on work experience and learning opportunities, but not great formal training programs within the LMS.
