Pros

Great company full of highly talented and driven Engineers, that make great cars - and the results speak for themselves

Cons

- Some areas of their finance department are truly one big mess - Surprisingly incompetent staff. Senior Management and Directors are biased, unmeritocratic, and show favouritism - Management never seem to give logical, well reasoned explanations to any important decision making - that or they just don't show up to meetings they're expected to lead - Half the staff work without job specs and never set objectives. Performance appraisal process is farcical - Process failures, and an unwillingness to simplify unecessarily overcomplicated procedures seem the norm that no one wants to fix

Pros

- Amazing work culture and work life balance - As a designer the world is your oyster of how you want to grow and develop - Manager is amazing at communicating your needs and empathizing with you - Everyone is driven to be a better designer and so much support from everyone

Cons

- Having to work sometimes really early or nighttime due to time zone differences with some of the people we work with - Projects & goals sometimes have to change in the week to better fit business needs and team goals.

Pros

Great work life balance Supportive environment

Cons

If you fall in the less than 3 years experience bucket, your best shot is the new graduate positions which have terrible pay and full-time employment after 2-years is not guaranteed.
