Pros

Really good engineers and good people work here No one bothers you after your work-time No micromanagement

Cons

Management only says to do stuff, does nothing Handlind of the current automotive crisis is horrible by the management Teams are heavily overloaded, without any bonus or new recruitment planned Innovation bundled together into the bonus, even for roles where this is quite impossible (e.g.: technical management roles) Useless trainings provided by upper management Software direction without software mindset and environment

Pros

Work-life balance is great and getting an internship extended is very common.

Cons

Not on the cutting edge of tech at all and they seem to move slowly much like the rest of the auto industry.
