Pros

Since the company has been acquired by JCI, there are more possible opportunities for career movement available through JCI as a whole, but not within Recaro. The office and attached plant are in nice condition and the seating products are unique.

Cons

The company is owned by JCI, but Recaro still feeds up through Recaro Germany. There is a lot more red tape and additional unnecessary tasks to get anything done. Everything goes through Germany and Bratislava. The salaries are not very competitive. The health care benefits are worse now that JCI has taking over. There's no room for growth inside of Recaro itself. Upper management seems to not share with the employees as a whole. Favoritism is blatant.

Pros

I genuinely enjoy working at RECARO and have had a very positive experience during my time here. The people are what make this company special. There are a lot of hardworking, talented employees who care about what they do and are always willing to help one another. One of the things I appreciate most is the opportunity to work on meaningful projects and contribute to the success of the business. The work is challenging, engaging, and gives employees the chance to continuously learn and grow. I've been able to gain valuable experience, develop professionally, and work alongside people with a wide range of knowledge and expertise. The company has a strong commitment to quality, teamwork, and customer satisfaction. I have always felt trusted to take ownership of my work and contribute ideas that make a difference. The culture encourages collaboration, and there is a genuine sense of pride in the products and services we provide. Overall, I truly enjoy working for RECARO and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a company with great people, meaningful work, and opportunities to grow both personally and professionally.

Cons

Like any growing organization, there are occasional challenges, and there are always opportunities for continuous improvement. Overall, any challenges I have encountered have been minor compared to the positive aspects of working for the company.
