Pros

Nothing. The company looks decent from outside to people who don't know Munich's job market.

Cons

Everything. Terrible working environment, politics, high employee turnover but also hire and fire policy. Lies, lies, lies and colleagues who are always fighting with each other. Managers who think that they are CEOs, Powerpoint software architects and developers who pollute teams with their presence. HR who cannot do a simple task correctly.

Pros

It's an unrecognized job by management, they don't care about you unless you make them more money so they get bonuses. All they care about is performance metrics, no matter what you do to your co-workers.

Cons

Expected to work in an outdated color arrangement that is mostly black. When it's 100 degrees out, on hot asphalt, not ideal. They expect you to log the tiniest damage so that they can bill the customer. Do they not take depreciation on the cars. Their fuel gages are wonky and don't work right. I believe they are charging customers for fuel when they shouldn't.
