Pros

Exciting opportunity to be on the forefront of software technology in vehicles. Unique role that allows for both visual design and software development.

Cons

A linear assembly-line approach to developing software product. Unrealistic goals with unreasonable deadlines leave you feeling unproductive and constantly pressured. Long timelines (years) to see your work in production if ever. Uncompetitive pay compared to those in the tech sector.

Peter Principle

Pros

Conveniently located; decent pay and benefits; a lot of time off.

Cons

The Peter principle is an observation that in an organizational hierarchy, every employee will rise or get promoted to his or her level of incompetence. Executives say 'if you see something, say something' but they don't really mean it. If you don't have a good manager, you have no hope of succeeding at the company and there aren't many 'good' managers. A lot of favoritism.

Pros

Very few pros, product was good. Other sales people were pleasant to work with. Pretty good service department. Hours are not too bad for the car business.

Cons

Horrible management style, very mean spirited. Pay plan sucks. When you start, they say you can take a day off during the week, what they don't tell you is you will be questioned as to why you need a day off. It's tempting to say, "I need it to get away from you.
