Pros

The work environment is great. There are people here that have been around for several years, and other just coming on (like me 3+ years). The workload is well measured, and each employee has a voice. The diversity is superb, and overall fair.

Cons

As a German company, there is a lot of favoritism, which I guess is expected. The hiring policies are outdated; experience, skills and capability are not valued as much as a degree. HR is inconsistent; I was transferred from one region of the US to another, without a change in my salary based on the fact that according to their feedback, there was no change in cost in living. According to all the standard metrics, this is not true. What's worse, other employees that did the same transfer did receive increases. I'm currently hired to perform in a position different to that of my title, for the fact that I did not meet the job description's requirements. However, I perform to a level the same as my peers, and am expected to meet the same results, while receiving a significant lesser salary. Trainings and improvement opportunities are a battle. This company does not encourage Management to promote the growth of their employees.

ZF TRW Body Controls Division = Anchor

Pros

A few nice people scattered about.

Cons

ZF TRW Global Body Controls Division has a real arrogant and condescending leadership structure starting at the top down through the top level of sales. Lack of technology, and vision from top management, who believe they are brilliant and clever, but in fact have done nothing to secure the future of the company. No respect for the customer, as they are only focused on short term gains and not long term partnerships. They are an anchor to ZF TRW. Just do a google search and you will find out all you need to know about this division. The work/life balance....not here!! Keep looking!!
