      Ruined what once was...

      Pros

      Good PTO and decent benefits. The ability to work a hybrid schedule is nice.

      Cons

      This company acquired AMX 9 years ago and completely decimated what once was a top if not the top control system company in the world. Senior execs having no idea what exactly we did at AMX decided they had a grand vision to "IMPROVE" it. After cutting off the legs of the company they expected us to run. We went from winning award after award for the service we provided to being minimized down to just another call center whose upper management does not understand the value of good service and instead wants to force unrealistic metrics down the line. I worked for AMX for 7 years before Harman came, I worked another 9 years under the new regime and was recently let go due to "workforce reduction", which is a fancy term for "you make too much, we are hiring people in another country for less".

      Thank you for sharing your perspective. We appreciate your feedback on the changes that occurred after the AMX acquisition. We understand that there's a difficult time after a company is bought and that internal procedures and company culture are going through a transition period. HARMAN's culture is defined by team spirit and a supportive and innovative mindset. We are disappointed to hear this wasn't your experience. We take your feedback seriously as we continue to strive for improvement. We wish you success in your future endeavors.

      Pros

      The US based management team was in another time zone.

      Cons

      All of it was awful - mostly rude, sexist Indian males leeching off US economy.
