Pros

People are great and teams are well gelled, operationally excellent. For car lovers, you get test drives of most recent models.

Cons

The company applies a harsh cost-cutting strategy; for example, prepare to pay for your coffee - something widely available for free which also stimulates your productivity.

Pros

-good infrastructure and great budget allocation for IT projects. -Nothing comes free. -Flexible working hours.

Cons

Co-workers: If you work in the BMW IT you can forget everything you know about standard IT from an international perspective. You get to work with a lot of extremely rude and arrogant people that has very little to do with IT. Some would say it is an equivalent of production band. very rare are good people. if you find a qualified person its guaranteed that they are overworked, under-appreciated and highly frustrated. Most people here spend lot of hours either staring at a monitor or sitting in meeting rooms with no real purpose. Mangagement- like most of us, they have very little knowhow on whats going on around or above them. Hierarchy is extremely important. Lack of transparency goes hand in hand with that.
