Pros

Tell you anything to get in the door.

Cons

Worst management in the industry. Work long hours including weekends. Head of program management has a dictator style. This is reflected and rewarded by the president. Purchasing department has the image of Men's Warehouse. Engineering is led by inexperienced and arrogance.

Pros

My 21 plus years at Magna were good years and I was a dedicated employee. I saw continuous improvement during those years.

Cons

I retired on January 3rd of 2016 and am still waiting for my retirement gift of a clock and a $600 Walmart gift card. When I call HR they keep giving excuses, and to be honest it feels like a slap in the face after giving the company some many years of dedication. I'm posting this here because I didn't know where else to turn.
