CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Coffee is great....!!..Hats off to IT policies....

Cons

In crisis, business going down the toilet since 2023... From Magna Electronics Perspective(Software and Electronics):- - Quality of product no great as domain knowledge is poor. - There is no Centre of Excellence or pool of inhouse engineers - There is no roadmap, huge gap between R&D and market needs. - Management doesn't know what they are doing really, - Veoneer acquisition just for RADAR product integration didn't work well. - Work culture is extremely bad , resembles India services company - Work with fast to market, emerging OEMs and make them go bankrupt. Do you really wanna join here? If yes be ready to work with arrogant Indians only!!.
