The worst place i have ever worked

Pros

fBMW brand reputation. Nothing else whatsoever to recommend. This is a BMW outpost, not in any way resembling a design agency. The worst place i have ever worked.

Cons

Lies told in job interviews. Extremely profit focused; lots of management politics and infighting; behind the curve with UX; office is in the middle of nowhere; overly conservative and corporate culture; inability to make decisions quickly and operate in an agile way. Selling out to BMW was a terrible decision for everyone except the Beverly Hills dwelling senior management.
