Visteon Corporation Employer Reviews

Large company, decent pay, but no longer an industry leader

There was always work to be completed. It was an opportunity to learn about the way an assembly plant is operated.

I have worked at Visteon for over 15 years. I am fortunate to work with some very talented people.

Offered excellent training, growth and excellent healthcare and benefit package
Every day I look forward to go to work
Management structure was excellent which valued their employees
Peers were good team workers
Never had pat in my stay at Ford Motor Company
Successful program launches. growth and patients
I loved and enjoyed every second of my entire – more... stay at ford
Salary does not include lease cars profit shearing and other misc benifits – less

Inventory, account for people, Quality a very military type position. I liked how locked in a process you were. Most enjoyable part was we were free to make decisions on the fly to meet our customer demands, very little game playing.

The most enjoyable part of the job was my co-workers. I worked with some AMAZING and talented people.

Work days involved a lot of meetings with budget and product reviews on almost a daily basis. I learned how to work on many things at the same time and how to make decisions involving large amounts of complicated information. The management team was very driven and demanding but we all functioned very well as a team. The workforce was very diverse coming – more... form all over the world. The hardest part of the job was managing budgets in a very difficult time for the auto industry. The most enjoyable part of the job was traveling the world to meet with employees and customers. – less

stayed busy running 2 machines at a time, kept assembly lines stocked, Great benifits, I got along great with co workers and managment.

fast pace facility where eneryone are on the same page. Good management and co-workers.

I remember when Ford created this company. I said it then and will repeat it was setup to fail. Eliminated American plants that were UAW staffed. That is my opinion.

At visteon there are many different areas that you could have exposure to

The project involved implementing various modules of ECC 6.0 namely HR, FI-CO, SD, MM, PP, WM. In addition CRM 5.0 was implemented. The project is at Nissan assembly plant in Smyrna, TN and was a huge suceess. The supply chain mangement module integrated well with CRM and other ECC 6.0 Modules and shown a huge payback for Nissan opeartions.
