Pros

The pay is good, there is very little stress and strong job security.

Cons

Career development opportunities are limited and only for those who play the political game well. There are many more managers than the company truly needs, many of them recruited on criteria other than their actual ability to direct and enable people. Hypocrisy is a core value at Michelin - management will often ask you to speak up about things that are not ideal in the company and should be improved, but the correct answer to those requests is that everything is perfect (and in the area of software development, it definitely is not). Incompetent and thick management layers make the company an environment that is not ideal for people who care about more than getting their paycheck without working too hard. Decision making processes are crippled with politics and very slow.

Pros

1. Relaxed Work culture. 2. Some people get the chance to go abroad(but not all) 3. Job pretty much secure if you work mediocre too. 4. Free transport and food at the factory.

Cons

1. Very flat organization. Your good efforts may go in vain. 2. Too much power given to the manager. If your manager is not good, or is not supportive of your work, then its difficult to gain attention, and move up the ladder. 3. Very lax and inefficient HR department. 4. Factory too far outside the city, so the travel is a big factor in disturbing the work life balance.
