Pros

15+ years with Yamaha, they have great products, great benefits with a good 401k plan. Many opportunities for advancement.

Cons

Management constantly under pressure from Japan, very political environment, no loyalty to employees, you can go from hero to zero in no time with a what have you done for me lately attitude. They have little consideration for personal family and life outside Yamaha and expect complete loyalty to the company.

Pros

Great workplace, great coworkers, and great culture if you’re passionate about the powersports industry. The benefits are good, 401k match is good.

Cons

Pay compensation could be a little better, but this industry is cyclical. When the economy is good, raises and bonuses are easier to obtain. During tough times that affect the industry as a whole, things can get lean, but understandably so.
