Pros

Cool products, interesting technology. Great opportunities if you are in the H1B visa program from India or China. Flexible work times (you can work any 12 hours of the day you want). Lots of overtime available (unpaid). Lots of free lunches because you will be expected work through your normal lunch.

Cons

No work/life balance. Worst vacation policy in SE Michigan (you get your 4th week after 15 years of service). Constant fire fighting and new management team has no idea how to bring this under control. People are pretty disappointed in the current direction of the company and the company prospects. A few years ago, in a surprise move to most people, they laid off 50% of the audio group to send those jobs to India and China. Lots of customer dissatisfaction due to OEM yard holds. Management team works so many hours (including lots of weekend meetings) that they don't know how to appreciate your extra efforts.

Pros

Good salary package only during joining After that hike will be given only if you are close to manager and say yes to everything he says [ even if he says put that glass over there]

Cons

1. No Career path defined, only if you bring this issue they will think of that. 2. some people [although don't know anything] think tha they know every aspect of automotive domain in this world. 3. Leads and managers have very bossy attitude and would blame you for everything. 4. Company does not provide tools, and resources to everyone..you need to beg, borrow and steal.. I really do not have words to describe the work-culture in Harman, people specially managers do not have any professional ethics...only thing they know is "Make it Happen"...how and in what way they don''t know...
