Pros

Exciting product and very talented people. Best in class facility and tools in engineering. Pay and benefits are slightly above average but dropping every year. H-D used to be a great place to work.

Cons

Engineers treated as a plug & play resource. Assignments are made without regard to interests or career goals. Engineering leadership is old boy network of clones that all think and act the same. Think and act like them or you are gone. Lots of change, which is necessary but no change management or consideration of the impact on people. No work/life balance. It has been a rough three years with at least a year of pain remaining.

Pros

My hiring journey began with a seamless application process, followed immediately by an incredibly organized scheduling phase. The Harley team kept me informed every step of the way. I never had to guess where I stood, as next steps were always laid out clearly. During the interview experience the entire Harley team panel was professional, welcoming, and were genuinely interested in my background, making the interview feel like a collaborative conversation. The transparency throughout the process gave me complete confidence when I ultimately accepted the job offer.

Cons

I have no cons to call out based on my experience in the interview process.
