Pros

If you are hired, you will get good experience at whatever position you are in. There is a lot of engineering and manufacturing expertise in the company. Most people put in 2-4 years and then go somewhere else. If you know how to work the system, you can make a career out of it.

Cons

There is no plan for career development. Lear does not develop employees. Layoffs occur frequently and without warning. Many positions in engineering and manufacturing are being sent overseas. There is also a lot of bureaucracy. Lear is an old boys network and many people have their positions because they know someone.
