Pros

Overall good place to work with smart people. Job is enjoyable, most people that work there are hardworking and easy to get along with.

Cons

Flex takes advantage of its people on pay as time goes on. Flex went from 2022 to 2025 without giving its indirect labor employees a pay increase. Each year is a mystery on whether it will happen or not and the way it is communicated on whether it is or is not happening leads to distrust among the employees. The years we do have an increase, HR will tell everyone it is happening one month but then they change it and it happens months later. If you try to get promoted, it is very common HR will convince you that it is a lateral move and offer no pay increase (even when going from an individual contributor to manager), or they will offer an increase but very minimal. You may come in a with a decent salary upon being hired, but the lack of pay increases over several years makes you look for work else where because you are now making 10%-20% less than market value.

Pros

Health, dental, vision, and 401(k) were quite good.

Cons

Flex tolerates a toxic work culture from their most senior leaders. My director, literally, yelled at me daily, usually throughout the day. He physically grabbed me and forced me in the direction he wanted me to move. He threatened to fire me or replace me at least once a week. I went to the then director of HR who did absolutely nothing. After she was let go I went to her successor who told me there was no record of me speaking with HR before. And she did nothing. Unable to tolerate the work environment, I left. The company doesn't take safety seriously. We had shelving collapse resulting in an employee needing medical attention. The person tasked with designing and building storage has no training, no mechanical background, and no analysis is being performed to validate if the storage can hold 1,000+ pounds. There's no budget for professionally designed storage and, again, I was threatened for raising this as a concern. I learned today this same director is continuing to use me as a scapegoat despite me no longer working there.
