      Ford needs to act like a smaller company, not just be one.

      Pros

      Ford is a great place to work for good work-life balance. There is also a high level of diversity amongst employees, and people from all different cultures work here. Most people are friendly and welcoming. Everyone makes you feel like you're welcome and wanted, even if its fake at times.

      Cons

      There's way too much red tape in the process. The company is full of bureaucracy. The worst problem is that higher management does not know what it is doing. Every 1-2 years, there tends to be a new mantra for higher management. Everyone moves in that direction, then two years later, its gone - discarded - kaput! Then, a new manager comes in; with a new mantra. There's a lot of "waste" (i.e. TPS muda) in every process.

      How an hourly Ford worker see the company

      Pros

      The pay and benefits, even though they are shinking, are still the best around. Ford also provides a great opportunity to work in a diverse work environment. The concept of working as a team is also stressed to the the continuous build process. If the first person does the job wrong, the next will have problems.

      Cons

      Some of the downsides are that performance has little effect on the way you are viewed and advanced. Senority is key. The work on the body is strenuous and wears it down. Employees are also given too many opportunities to keep their jobs. The company and union need to work together to keep the strongest work force, not just a high number of employees.

      Pros

      There are a lot of opportunities to expand you knowledge to different areas of the business. Work/life balance is the best of any company I have worked for. The benefits used to be top notch, but have been reduced in recent years. Still better than most other companies.

      Cons

      Poor senior management communication. Ford needs to change with the times and it is business as usual from decades past. The constant turmoil of the automotive industry puts a lot of strain on the employees.
