Flex Employee Reviews & Ratings

High pressure working environment so bad.

Lack of direction and vision due to constant management turnover, reorganizations, etc.

From my opinion it's more struggle for fresh graduate

Layoffs every other quarter. No job security. Distance from my house to Flextronics was 90 miles round trip.

Questioned management's cost savings decision.

PM group responsibilities are not well understood or managed. Much of the typical PM work is handled by area managers.

Beauracratic processes not unlike most large international companies.

Lack for external training and certifications

Remuneration package could be improved as per market standards

Technical exposure to work is less

Getting promoted is hard Customer satisfaction above everything

Management positions are available within a group of people, but you can sell yourself very well outside.

Management need to retain good talent

More stress Food is not good No job security

limited advancement Management is actually pretty bad and are usually outperformed.

They will burn you out....

-Non-competitive pay -Project ramps can call for long hours

Notice period & low salary

This part does not encompass all my issues, but I will do my best to address the main points. The work area is new but does not make it nice. We are required to work in the office that has tiny bathrooms that often require you to wait in a line when you have to “go.” You can also go downstairs to the manufacturing area and use their bathroom that would feel similar to a run-down minor-league baseball stadium experience. The "Corporate Area" only has windows on one side so most people not close to them gets the old government building experience. Once would think with the “work from the office” mandate, we would get a nicer place to work. My desk was near the break “room” which was basically an area with vending machines and sinks. It was “awesome” to have people walking behind me all day, every day. The people are a mix bag of over-stressed, paranoid and generally unhappy people with a combination of fake pleasantness towards each other. This definitely comes from leadership as most of them are “climbers.” I had multiple leaders and the ones that identified with their employees are all gone only to be replaced with those who are too focused on their own careers to truly be concerned with the well-being of their teams. I never truly fit in with this culture even though I found myself being promoted at one point. The work was somewhat easy for me but don’t let that fool you. Even though my job was easily measured, I was always led to believe I was doing “half-ass” work. I still keep up with a lot of people there. The more time I am away from this job, the more I see just how miserable they really are, and I feel sorry for them. I also met some really great people there. One truly does find camaraderie through adversity.

Work Time should be flexible

-office politics -strange working environment -too many procedures

Low work life balance and very stressful

IT org is confusing and duplicating. the only message this sends out is that all IT functions will eventually move to Mexico and India where most IT staff is and all functions of IT duplicated. hard to be dedicated if you know your exit plan is already in place.

There is a lack of vison, goals change very quickly, there is little support. Poor upper management. Salaries are stagnate with little to no raises. There is a bonus structure but its hard to attain.

Constant challenges lead to long hours

Work life balance can be tough

- Not known for high compensation.

People are nice, but scared to give info about job while learning from fear of losing their own job. Constantly hiring and letting go, goes with the character of the company (Project contractors).

Verizon Wireless is the largest customer for RTS. There is too much reliance on them. Accounts with other companies need to be expanded. (AT&T, Wal-Mart, Microsoft.) Limited advancement beyond Regional Manager level.

Cost is always the concern

Flex as a company give max benefits to its employee but your senior management can add you work life balance and recognition as a bad experience. It was different for all in my team.

work/life balance(depending on the work area)

Limited stock options. Revenue growth is slow.

Growth at different level os a concern

Job security, no time flexibility

Sub par benefits package

pay nine to eleven dollars per hour.

Better contact with top management required

Too large of an organization, can be bureaucratic, a lot of senior management changes in recent months

The business is very cyclical. Lots of people get cut when a contract gets dropped. Pay is Lower than it should be. The general attitude for low level employees is that they can easily be replaced so there is little loyalty to the little guys in the company.

The Appraisal process will be the cons

Over the years the company has became overly bureaucratic, self centered and unwilling or unable to implement real changes. Despite the increases in internal communication, the top executives are increasingly more distanced from the real world.

Standing most of the day,

Salary is less Need to increase the shift allowance

frequent layoff, resulted insecure work attitude.

There is no one disadvantage

Cab facilities are not available. No appraisal for contract people. For the contract people not good to work. If u r working as a contract basis plz think before join

No opportunities to grow throughout the company.

lack of growth, less knowledge,

Leadership culture is to protect their positions at all costs. They do not care an ounce about helping anyone advance within the company unless it benefits them personally. Relocated families and hired talented people, used them to launch the MacPro, then cut them to show quarterly savings. Invested in uniforms for 800 employees then downsized to 200 to cut costs. Meanwhile, 600 people took their uniforms home.
