Pros

* projects have impact on experience of real life people * enough freedom to try new approaches * great location (both office and city) * good salary and bonus * company car is a good value, if you use it a lot to explore all the surroundings * management does listen to feedback and implements some of it * planning is generally good, so there usually is no excessive time pressure * end results are well received products * open source cooperation works, but you need to be self-motivated to do so

Cons

* there is a risk of slipping into routine firefighting mode without self-motivation for seeking out change * recruitment process is long and hard * code and processes can be really complex

Pros

BMW has a strong and distinctive culture where getting things built with quality is paramount.

Cons

To progress and have an larger impact, you must be prepared to put effort into understanding and meet the German culture at least half-way. No, you don't need to speak German fluently. But learn some, ask questions, take work seriously and build your network.
