Pros

Decent benefits and annual bonus. You might also get to work along side some great people (not all & not management) and that is pretty much it.

Cons

Management can't be trusted and no real true encouragement to grow and a lot of lip service. Managers will talk behind your back and think you will not find out (everyone talks). A lot of great value's written on the wall, but sad to say there's no action behind them. Completely Pro-Management like I never experienced before, learned most of them recruited each other because of prior friendships (not qualifications). However, there are a few good Mangers to be under and you will be lucky if you find yourself on their team, but just not enough. Overall was one of my worst experience with a Company. No real valued growth that I will take with me other than what red flags to look for with other companies. Tell you what you want to hear and that's about it. Just be AWARE and make sure to ask the right questions in the interview do not be blinded by the Yamaha name its not worth it! I now even have a hard time trusting my new employer from the experience here, just be careful! This sole speaks to YMFUS (Yamaha Motor Finance Corp.)

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.
