Bendix reviews

They do not appreciate the employees that they have. Although there are a number of opportunities that should equate to promotions and hire in opportunitues for the contractors. The company turns them in to opportunities that are out of reach for their workers that have been doing the job. They bring in people off the street in higher positions than the current employees and expect the current employees to train them. That is a lack of respect for the loyal people that have done the job for years.

The culture is being eroded by process overload and a seemingly combative attitude of the parent company towards the Bendix division. Unless it is a record year with record truck build, management characterizes it as a tough year, with the usual belt-tightening messaging and actions. The metrics used to manage the business are often unrealistic, with the predictable outcome being that results are often 'disappointing'. The products are often mature commodities and the interesting development and decisions are generally made overseas. Not the best choice for someone trying to secure the most interesting and profitable position on a regional or national scale. Turnover is quite high.
