Where to begin. Pre-Pandemic First management here shows no care nor concern for employees. If you are sick, you are pressured to come in because there is no one to cover your workload. Departments are always understaffed and over worked. I regularly had to work an 80hr week just to keep my head above water. Department was down 3 people and was just told for 3+ years, we are interviewing people. Someone new will come in and take some of the load. Never happened. Then management plays these weird little games with you. Where they will assign a task and a minimal amount of time to do it. However they have already done the task and this is a "test". If you don't complete the task exactly how they want it done (this includes color coding using their favorite colors), they will use this at review timing, ignoring all the actual work you have done and submitted to the customer correctly. Ignoring that you could increase profit on the assigned carlines. They will on focus on your perceived mistakes. Third, the culture here is very negging based. Management will constantly put you down, make you feel worthless, then occasionally throw you a small compliment. They try to make you feel like you would not be able to succeed outside of the company. So you just become complacent and stay with Yazaki. Fourth. Let's say you did stick with the company, and every year you are told the company can't give you a raise because the there just isn't any profit. And this goes on for years even though the yearly reports show decent profits. But you stick with it. Then, when new people come in, straight out of college, and they are complaining about the low pay they accepted, but took it anyway cause they needed the job and this low pay os $20,000 more than your salary? Yeah, this isn't a great way to retain employees. Perhaps they should look at actually paying the current employees or at least try and keep them current with the industry standard. I left here and was able to find a brand new job in no time making ove $30,000 more because, as the new HR stated, more along the lines of what someone with my experience should be making. Post-pandemic. Worst response towards employees I have ever seen. Everything they did was to protect the company and forgo any considerations towards employees. As an example, in 2020 after it became clear that the virus wasn't going anywhere, the company had the great idea to lay everyone off. But then found out that with Canadian laws being what they are, they would still have to pay the Canadian employees. So what did they do? Shifted all work from the US to Canada. And laid off all the US work force for 2 months. They also required before you were laid off to use all of your vacation and sick time. So half way through the year, you had nothing left. Sick? Too bad. You have to take time off unpaid. Get COVID? Too bad, again take your unpaid time off. This was one of the worst responses I have heard about in the automotive industry. My friends at other companies experienced nothing like this. Yes there were temporary layoffs, but they also didn't force everyone to exhaust their time off. They actually added days for when you got sick. Yazaki has always been this way though. They always claim they make no profit, so there can't be raises bonuses, etc... but then management gets them? Yazaki is one of the most toxic and cliqueish places I have worked. There is no unity, just everyone for themselves and throw whoever you can under the bus. The TLDR: stay away, low pay, toxic, probably going to end up laid off.
