      Pros

      If you are looking for good benefit, Flextronics does provide good health, stock option, and 401k with 100% matching plan.

      Cons

      Flextronics have poor communication bettween management level and different teams. Lets say there are some issue on production floor, it would take the manager atleast a day later to get notify from the floor supervisor. Another problem, unless your working in the office. If you are on the floor, you'll be working on one of their 2 shifts. 5am to 1.30pm or 1.30pm to 11pm. I happen to be in the 5am shift, there are no way around, programmer have to stay whenever machine operate for support as need.

      A review on working at flextronics international

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flextronics is a well established company that has been in the semiconductor manufacturing industry for quite a long time. They are currently doing reasonably well in the market too. It is also a well organized company, providing very good employee health benefits and has helpful human resources personnel. They used to have an indoor basketball gym, not sure if they still have it :-)

      Cons

      I think compared to the market they do not pay that well, but they used to pay decent bonuses. Again, this is just my opinion and the general impression I had from people that I know of.

      Pros

      There are so many things needing improvement that there are enormous opportunities for those with the desire to fix things. The segmented structure allows people with specialized backgrounds and skills to optimize their position. Flextronics has lots of skill and personel diversity and could succeed greatly, if management could resolve their vision problems. Focus on training next generation leader using the Emerging Leaders program will have a long term benefit for employees and the company. Company is finally starting to recognize employees as an asset but this is still in the early stages. Flextronics is a large distributed company so there are opportunities all over the globe, depending on a person's interest and background.

      Cons

      Management is not supportive of change they don't initiate so a lot of political negotiating can be required to complete even simple changes to policy or procedure. The pay structures are not as competetive as other companies. Some groups run very lean so work requirements in those groups can be difficult. There is lots of politics between different management levels and different regions. Senior management often puts their own personal interests above those of the company. Company vision and goals are financially focused without fully understanding the mechanics required to achieve the goal in a sustainable fashion. Limited focus on quality affects perceptions of the company.
