Pros

you'll get to know how the automotive industry works, good place to start but don't stay for long, benefits are ok,

Cons

you're probably not going to learn a lot of best practices, salary for devs is quite low compared to the industry as it's paid by the projects not the company itself so they skimp as much as they can to keep a profitable bottom line, "flexible" work hours but you have to clock in between 9am and 3pm, no food options nearby aside from the cafeteria in the building, overtime doesn't carry over to the next year and they only pay hours after you've accumulated 150hours any negative hours you have will carry to the next year

Pros

Great place to learn and gain hands-on automotive experience. People are generally friendly and easy to get along with, and you’ll be exposed to a lot of technologies and real-world problem solving very quickly.

Cons

Upper management is disorganized and heavily political. Decision making is often chaotic, priorities constantly change, and there is very little work-life balance. Long hours and high stress can burn people out quickly.
