Pros

Employees passionate for the auto business. There is a new focus on accountability in the Company with and honest recognition that the old ways of doing business will not win the war. The Company appears to be less wed to the historical Ford legacy which is slower to evolve and address the changing industry. Over time, Ford will become less of a family legacy business, to a results driven business that doesn't mute strong leadership and drives differentiation from the competitors. Product design is starting to take a stronger role in the Company, but still a long way from being an industry leader.

Cons

Too much "Detroit think". Difficult to attract up and coming mid level talent during a time when the industry is in such turmoil.

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.
