Pros

Its a great place to work if you love cars! Being a global company it has many opportunities if you look in the right places.

Cons

The industry is risky, and the company is not too well positioned for the future. Employment is under continuous pressure and it is very difficult to advance unless you are put somehow on a fast track. As a result, general employee motivation and morale is not widespread. Another issue is that most places the company operates are heavily dependent upon it as an employer, so your personal fotune is closely tied with the company.

Pros

Discounts on car. They are also good with letting people take time off. Good discounts on events and good benefits package. Depending on your job, management is pretty much clueless as to exactly what your 'duties' are.

Cons

Management is clueless. They show no appreciation, and give very little information about activities coming downstream. The work environment is very segregated, with visibile minorities sticking with themselves. At times, it becomes very hard to get work done, as people just wonder around drinking tea without really answering any emails or returning phone calls with proper answers.
