Pros
Great people, great products, excellent benefits - an American Icon. I can't say enough about the level and amount of talented people that keep this place running despite management's best efforts. There is a level of pride in working for an American Icon such as Fender that is unsurpassed.
Cons
Poor upper management - we've had very little turnover in upper management as a company and that is not a good thing. There is too much old school marketing and management at the top and a serious lack of interest in ideas and new school thinking. Too many VPs equals too many cooks in the kitchen. As an employee, there is a lack of upward mobility. Many "promotions" are nothing more than lateral moves with a new title or they combine two jobs into one and create a new position. Compensation is below average but good for the Music Industry.
