Pros

1. Getting to work on Infotainment systems, which is the most versatile systems in the vehicle. 2. Challenging work and potential to move if you are ever recognized for your work value. Which can be difficult depending on if you have the right boss (one with a backbone) and if it is the right phase of the moon for Harman.

Cons

1. Quality is not controlled and/or communicated properly. 2. Software and hardware do not work collaboratively. 3. When there is a problem, people there throw it over to wall to the next person. 4. New technology/ideas are not really welcome or appreciation 5. No management appreciation or recognition. 6. No bonus offered to employees even though the CEO is one of the highest paid 7. No appreciation for products. The CEO only shows his face when absolutely necessary, even when there is a product/contract rolling out that is well over $1 billion in revenue...come on be a leader! 8. No employee value, even when you step outside of your job in a daily basis that is still not enough for any type of recognition. At least with the boss I had. 9. Not staying ahead of the customer and competition, Harman is 2 to 3 steps behind. Just playing catch up when a product is in the quoting phases. 10. One of the most stressful jobs you will most likely have. Along with pay that is not comparable to other companies in the market.
