Svantaggi
Once you get above Director level, leadership team is made up mainly of white men. No transparency on how senior leadership team is appointed - current trend is for ex-Porsche employees to be appointed to key roles. No transparency around whether internal promotions / moves were considered, and feeling is that these people are brought in as 'jobs for the boys' by ex BMW and ex Porsche C-suite members. Quality of product remains poor - unsurprising given the focus that management put on getting cars to market quicker and quicker without fixing the systemic issues that cause delays to programmes and quality issues. This results in a 'fire-fighting' culture that doesn't allow for proper planning and strategy development. Lower level management are generally promoted based on technical ability / delivery, without any consideration to people-management skills or aptitude. If you get a good people-manager, that is 100% through luck and not judgement.
