Sandvik

Pros: They do offer a hybrid work model, which is great. You can typically work remote a few days a week, making it easier to manage personal stuff. For engineering roles, it's pretty solid compared to fully onsite shops.
Cons: It's not truly flexible though; you're locked into specific days for office attendance. There's no real room to shift your WFH days if something comes up, which can be tough. The Tucson office has strict rules.
Advice to Management: Give managers more autonomy on team flexibility. Let employees adjust their hybrid schedule when needed, especially for experienced engineering roles. Trust your people more.

Pros: They offer a hybrid work model for office roles like a Production Planner. I've found it helpful to manage my personal appointments. My team's pretty understanding if I need to adjust hours occasionally.
Cons: But for factory floor roles, there's not much flexibility at all. The company's large size means policy changes for flexible work arrangements are really slow. Sometimes it feels like you're tied to the desk, even in the Houston office.
Advice to Management: Try to find ways to extend flexible work options to more roles, not just office staff. Listen to feedback from different departments.
