Pros

- Nothing significant as such compared to other tech/product companies.

Cons

- Lack of comprehensive vision and strategy covering other departments in the company. Departments often working in silos to deliver their own goals. - Focus on feature deliveries instead of tech-driven quality products. - Indian counterparts are pressured to slog and if pushed back your job security comes at risk. Whereas German counterparts are not treated the same way. - Regular practice to overload Indian counterparts with unrealistic deliverables in unrealistic timelines. And later complain on quality issues. - HR policies/employee benefits programs and tax benefits options are extremely poor, scarce and not elaborate at all for India office. Management is also unwilling to work on them which has been confirmed in many town halls and site-level connects.

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Expected to work in an outdated color arrangement that is mostly black.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.
