Pros

The Guitar R&D team is a talented and wonderful group to be apart of. The product is exciting to work on and the company dynamics are always different. Having health benefits offered is a plus and 401k matching is great. Direct management support in the Guitar R&D department outweighs other departments and is encouraging. The company is continuously looking for improvements and ways to increase marginal profits. Overall Fender is a great place to work and is a great opportunity for anyone interested.

Cons

Low compensation for new employees and promoted positions. Management restructures often. Culture disconnect between corporate offices and manufacturing facilities. No bonuses other than upper corporate management.
