Pros
Some talented and hardworking colleagues who genuinely try to support each other despite the environment.
Cons
Leadership is a closed, self‑protective group—many appear to have been pushed out of previous organizations due to their own mistakes. Instead of correcting course, they continue repeating the same failures here, dragging employees and the company down with them. Work–life balance simply does not exist. Weekend work is normalized, uncompensated, and unavoidable. “Comp‑offs” are meaningless because you will never get approval to use them due to nonstop workload. HR has no authority, no empathy, and no real role beyond acting as a messenger for decisions made by global teams. They do not support employees and rarely intervene in genuine issues. Performance evaluations are dishonest and demoralizing. Even if you deliver consistently, meet impossible deadlines, and go above expectations, you may still be labeled as “poor performer” during appraisals with no transparency. Poor workplace conditions. The food quality is extremely low, forcing most employees to spend extra money eating outside. Severe lack of essential development tools. The company does not invest in basic items like CANoe, proper debuggers, or necessary automotive development equipment. Teams constantly fight over limited tools, leading to friction, delays, and conflicts — yet management refuses to address the root cause. Job security is unstable. The company uses the automotive industry’s volatility as justification for sudden layoffs, prioritizing leaders over employees every time. Overall culture is deteriorating rapidly. Employees burn out while leadership enjoys the benefits of their work. When failures occur (often due to mismanagement), blame is pushed downward onto teams.
