      Pros

      The growth opportunities within Continental are endless. You have to be engaged, motivated, high performing, and up for the challenge. Growth and career is in your own hands. The key for success is that you take the initiative. The management support you'll receive is tremendous. The training opportunities are impressive. You are part of a strong global team with all the challenges and opportunities coming with it.

      Cons

      Some of the processes are too complex and slowing us down.

      Pros

      True MNC, with Continental AG effectively communicating its Vision & interest. It has invested a good money to setup a global R&D hub for supporting SW development projects for OEMs & a manufacturing plant to cater local OEM with components. One of the leading Tier 1 suppliers in India & a tough competitor to Bosch, Delphi & Denso My rating 3 (Neutral), is only w.r.t corporate values & policies... But local...

      Cons

      Continental has a history of acquisitions & mergers (Teves, Temic, Motorola, Siemens VDO etc.). Hence, processes are not adapted to make it unified. Manufacturing plant processes (mainly suited for production) are far for compliance to SW Services unit. Support processes like HR, Admin, Purchase, IT, Logistics etc. are very primitive & uncontrolled. There is no Open Door policy (at least in India) as claimed by the Global Leaders. Huge Corporate Cartels manage administration. Voices for any conflicts to code of conduct, corruption, non-compliance of processes, and w.r.t protection of intellectual property will be suppressed. SW services division is getting worse w.r.t culture from past 1 year as there was a complete re-organization... Change for getting worse... TRUST is absolutely missing between employees & management In one phrase, "Systems are susceptible for personnel change". Ideally Systems should be independent of people change. However, this is far from reality.
