Pros

- good experience to learn a lot of jobs within the company - the coworkers were the best part of this job, everyone was like a family, it was like a second home - usually stable environment and always busy most of the time except for some periods - very diverse so you get to meet people of different cultures and background

Cons

- MANAGEMENT were arrogant and didn't care about the workers so much and don't listen to the workers who have real complaints - it was far to travel to Newmarket for a lot of workers - pay was not that great for most

Pros

Their companies values only apply when it benefits the company and the leadership is very poor. I found no pros working for Flextronics, too bad really. I went to work for Flextronics thinking I was making a solid career change to find about the supervisor disrespected women in the position I was hired in. I was underminded me in front of co-workers over and over. I went to the manager several times and nothing was done. The work center was a Hostile working environment.

Cons

Only con was a free health screening. The health insurance plan was horrible. The health insurance is a HSA just horrible. Dental Plan was good though. I worked 6 days a week for two years to get a new product to market to be re-paid back by laying me off, my husband and 1,100 other people once the project was completed. I will never work for Flextronics in my career again nor do I recommend it to anyone. The pay is also very low if you do not have a degree such as I an my husband did. Most people were only getting paid $10 hr and when converted up to $10.50 hour.

Pros

Good pay and benefits, lots of room for moving lateral or up

Cons

Overworked, poor work-life balance, thankless, treated expendable, and expected to move shifts during changes in the project demands on a short notice. Management talks about values but I don't see the practicing of the preaching.
