What do you like about working at Motorola Solutions?

"The culture was alright but sometimes the management was odd or short-sided. Overall pretty good. The aspects I liked was the industry (high tech), fairly modern up-to-date facilities, famous company. Nice corporate benefits (medical, 401K, etc). They also make an effort to be a positive influence on community, for example organizing about a day per year for everyone to do volunteer work in the community (on company time), and donating products or money to disaster relief when appropriate."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"I don't think there is anything special to do for Motorola compared to other companies. Standard stuff like know what's on your resume. One thing to remember is that like many large companies don't be surprised if they move slowly during the hiring process."

What don't you like about working at Motorola Solutions?

"Mentioned before - my direct boss had sub-par communication skills. I think in general many managers were promoted for their technical skills and not necessarily for their management skills."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"My direct boss worked extremely hard and was fairly smart. But his communication skills needed a lot of work. I don't know much about the CEO, although I think he should have had a company meeting here at his home office. I thought it was pretty strange that he had an office here and lived here, but never setup a meeting to say hello to the employees here, but flew around the world and met with employees at other locations.I suppose he is doing alright on execution. Mixed bag."

"Motorola has a strong supportive work culture."
