Pros

Company car scheme is great

Cons

Awful culture - there's a thin veneer of inclusivity here. And to a degree it's true - they don't care who you are or where you're from - you'll all be bullied just the same! I used to be a big VW fan, and when the opportunity came to work here it was like a dream come true - which then turned into a mental nightmare. Not only would I never step foot in the place again, but I'd recommend avoiding it. And I no longer buy the products they sell. If you enjoy stabbing people in the back then this is the place for you, but if you're human - avoid it like the plague!

Pros

Great culture among colleagues, very helpful and supportive Very good compensation for 40h/w Great work life balance Good trainings and learning opportunities Excellent workers rights representation Management has also the interests of their teams in focus Job Security

Cons

It's a big ship that steers slowly, be prepared to bury some of your projects or things that you put work into. (You can utilize this in reducing your own stress while working, as you can guess after some time which things will never make it out of the drawing room) The "System Wolfsburg" is real. Be prepared for political games and network accordingly. Hard to get into a management position through the internal way. If you have the chance to enter management positions while coming from another employer take it.
