Fender Musical Instruments

Is this your company?

Dichotomous. Many good people. No future vision. Still wedded to outmoded brick & mortar sales. Terrible top management. - Vice President Fender Musical Instruments Employee Review

Pros

Some of the product and manufacturing people are very passionate about the brand and heritage. Impressive new building.

Cons

Far too few people actually doing the work. Too many chiefs (VP-level and higher) and not enough indians. Model variants have exploded; product portfolio needs to be shrunk by 50 percent.

Pros

- super chill enviroment - great collegues - huge rock and roll culture - not super demanding depending on yearly projects - lots of fun activities year-round - great place to start your career; use it as a launchpad

Cons

- poor leadership; truly, IDK where they get these leaders from - you wont get any help, expect to be thrown in the deep end - frontline workers complain a lot, makes it hard to implement things
