Motorola Solutions Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Motorola Solutions is a good company, but they are simplifying themselves down to their core product of radio solutions and have sold off or eliminated most of their other products and divisions. They are preparing to sell and may soon be purchased by a large defense contractor. The company has been around a long time, but is slow to change, adapt, or improve. Managers tend to promote their friends, instead of conducting real searches for internal talent. There is also some prejudice against younger workers and women, as most leadership positions are filled by males 45 or older, regardless of ability or qualifications. Managers are also very detached, especially for remote workers. Weekly technical reports are generally ignored by management."

"Good place to work but working through contractor makes you poorly paid."

"Good place but working through contractor makes you poorly paid."

"It was not that great working for Microsoft."

"I started work at Motorola as intern in 2010 and have been here ever since. I gained a lot of experience in managing and working on service provider class networks."

"Relaxed working environment. Reasonable work pace."

"I have worked for Motorola, and we worked hard and played hard!"

"I have worked at Motorola Solutions for many years and have found it a solid and reliable company to work for. Although they did just close our CA design center, did a mass layoff, and moved our work to Poland, they were very nice about it. I would work for Motorola again."

"I have worked for this company about 2 years. The company's management doesn't know what direction they are driving the company into. Layoffs after layoffs, that's the experience my teammates and I had."

"I worked for Motorola Solutions for nine years. The company overall is a good company. In recent years there have been significant changes to headcount and sell offs of complete divisions. This seems to be an effort to get back to the base roots of the company, or make it attractive to be purchased by another. The most recent operational cuts will improve its bottom line and will either allow it to grow or make it an attractive add-on to a company in this space."

"Motorola Solutions has changed considerably due to a reorganization/restructuring effort aimed at unlocking shareholder value. While there are plenty of great people working there, this isn't a company that will create a new industry like the Motorola of old."

"I've worked with MSI since 2002 (contractor) and then switched to permanent in 2006. MSI is a very good company that I learned a lot from."

"Good initiatives on the technology front. Leading edge technology and good management."

"Behemoth dinosaur of a company that is so dysfunctional that its top executives actively encourage their employees to internally change the company, but their middle management punishes the employees when change is even just talked about."

"I worked for Motorola for over 18 years. It's a great company with a rich heritage and history. Though they have sold off portions of their business over the course of the past decade, they retain exceptionally high standards and lead in innovation in the Government and Public Safety arena."
