Columbus, OH

Former Employee – worked at BMW Financial Services as a contractor for less than a year

ProsGood work environment, flexibility. Company treats you well. Good benefits for actually BMWFS employees. Good place to get on your feet. Working with a lot of people close in age can be fun, but that type of environment also breeds a lot of complacent individuals. Management does make employees feel valued, even temporary/contract employees.

ConsLow pay for temporary employees, but considering the work is simply answering the phones, the wage could be considered fair. Dealing with some customers can be frustrating. Sitting on the phones for 8 hours a day is pretty monotonous but managers will recognize talented individuals and allow them some other opportunities to mix things up a bit.

Advice to Senior ManagementNone. Doing a pretty decent job.

Hilliard, OH

Former Employee – worked at BMW Financial Services full-time for more than 3 years

ProsDiscounted BMW program was the best thing they had.
The BMW brand is excellent.
BMW North America is where you want to be, not BMW Financial Services.

ConsThe pay is way to low.
Most of the managers are amateurs and have very little knowledge about management, finance, or the BMW brand.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Hilliard, OH

Former Employee – worked at BMW Financial Services full-time for more than a year

ProsFirst and foremost, the kitchen at this place is really great. It is staffed by Sodexho, which can be hit or miss, but BMWFS kitchen is definitely a hit, in my personal opinion. Besides the food, for the most part, your colleagues are all very nice, and about 75% of them are competent. The management is very friendly, and they provide some cool services and opportunities for full-time and temporary employees alike. Expect opportunities to go to Clippers or Blue Jackets games, or even pre-screenings of movies. Temporary employees are also able to get a holiday bonus, which was a very nice surprise. They also have ping pong and foosball tables which are nice additions to the work environment.

ConsAs a temporary employee, you are paid very little and are not able to get the great perk of the company car program. Even if you have been a temporary employee for 3+ years, you will not be able to avail yourself of the company car program until you are hired on and have worked for a full year. You are also not privy to the yearly bonus (different from holiday bonus), which can be a significant amount.

Advice to Senior ManagementKeep doing what you're doing.

ProsGreat people, great atmosphere, offers good international mobility.
Time is flexible and the starting compensation is quite competitive.

ConsThe scope of business and daily tasks are too narrow, and there's not too much to learn.
Almost no training program for any kind, makes a new grad. very hard to grasp the image.
