Pros

Some coworkers are smart and fun. Benefits are mostly good. Middle management is mostly made up of reasonable people. They do pay overtime unlike most salaried positions.

Cons

No real career progression, management structure constantly changing with no real reason why. I hated the work culture. I felt like I went backwards in my career taking this job, as it felt more like construction management rather than process engineering or battery manufacturing. I feel I didn’t learn much. Also, I think leadership doesn’t understand the EV market.

Pros

You get to say you work at Ford Motor Company

Cons

The only way they'll view you as a longterm investment is if they got you young right out of school- as an FCG or from CCS. They reward backstabbing and gossiping in the name of "survival of the fittest." They enable and encourage people like this to rot the company from the inside out. The people who are rewarded are those who can best cater to the emotionally unstable people in positions of leadership. They can't even lead- they either micromanage, or are passive aggressive in hopes that you can eventually read their minds. Neither is productive. Micromanaging wears away at anyone's agency and confidence. And passive aggressiveness doesn't move projects forward nor provide clarity. Take the time and energy you spend gossiping about the lost employee, and just communicate to them directly. That would yield faster results, and reduces stress for everyone involved in the long run. I don't understand managers who will gossip to anyone and everyone about you, but then claim they don't have time to talk to you directly and resolve issues.
