Pros

Nice products, dedicated employees, good work/life balance. Fair compensation and benefits.

Cons

Managers are more focused on protecting their positions rather than doing what is right for company. Cronyism is obvious and taints company culture. If you're not one of the good ol' boys, your input/contributions have little value. Highly political.corporate culture. New ideas are not welcomed by managers with little experience outside of the organization. . .

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.

Pros

My onboarding experience with Yamaha has been excellent. From day one, I have felt that the company has truly invested in my success and taken the time to ensure I have the tools and support needed to perform at a high level. The leadership team has been welcoming, organized, and committed to setting new employees up for long-term success. The floor associates are extremely hardworking and represent some truly outstanding people. There is a strong sense of teamwork and pride in the work being done each day. It is clear that many employees care about doing things the right way and supporting one another. I am proud to be part of such a well-respected brand and look forward to representing Yamaha and contributing to the continued success of the organization.

Cons

None to speak of at this time.
