Pros

ZF TRW is a big automotive company, where you can act internationally. There are always some new projects, where you can learn to deal with different OEMs.

Cons

-This is the place where manegers are managers, because they want to be there. And not because they fit there. -The management doesn't really promote trainings or personal development. So you have to live from what you had before. -The compony doesn't invest for tools and equipment. So as an engineer you have to suffer with outdated stuff and with Do it Yourself solutions.

Easy hours, limited upward mobility

Pros

Flex hours, 9/80 work schedule for Northville office, almost impossible to lose job (becomes a con after you hire enough lazy people)

Cons

Lack of accountability leads to environment where most of the work done by a handful of people (rest lazy/incompetent/don't care), you can only get fast-tracked if you're German, office politics (especially between regions) extreme, less focus on accomplishments and more on keeping up appearances

Pros

New products and customers coming on board. Chance to travel.

Cons

Always a sense of urgency. Lots of finger pointing, always need someone to blame. A meeting for a meeting mentality.
