Pros
- Great products and technology - The company is trying to do the right thing but is going about it the wrong way (see comments below) - There is a tremendous energy and desire to be the best car manufacturer and adapt to the challenges the industry faces
Cons
- The work life balance is very poor indeed - meetings being called at 7.30 in the morning; conference calls at all hours; very little recognition for the extra hours spent to achieve tight and demanding timescales and bosses. - Too many people in it for themselves rather than working for the greater good of the organisation. - Too many internal politics, teams not working together effectively. - People don't take ownership of issues and those that do then get lumbered with more to do as they are seen as the "go to" people - Some Senior Managers are unprofessional and do not show a good example to lower levels of management - Processes are far too cumbersome and not fit for purpose. - One office in Gaydon has experienced water shortages and toilets don't flush properly leading to employees feeling that they are not valued
