Pros

Good work-life balance Pleasant office atmosphere

Cons

The company is far from Volkswagen standards: -Salary bands are not competitive and are well below the market average in Spain for specialist, expert, and senior expert positions—especially in operations, engineering, and battery manufacturing. -Career paths are nonexistent, with very limited opportunities for progression. Promotions tend to depend more on internal connections than on actual performance or merit. -Benefits are poor, and support for expat employees who are not in management roles is extremely limited. -Additionally, there is a lot of manual work required across all departments, as the company consistently refrains from investing in modern technology and tools that could streamline processes.

A Disguised Mess

Pros

The benefits are still a work-in-progress, though we do receive a basket of fruits every Monday, which the company proudly lists as a benefit on its intranet.

Cons

If you enjoy being micromanaged, engaging in pointless busy work, and constantly chasing people for information, then this company will be a perfect fit for you. The organization operates more like a dysfunctional regime, riddled with incompetence and a severe lack of innovation. Many of the leads, who are mostly transferred from the parent company VW, have little to no prior leadership experience and bring with them an outdated command-and-control mindset, yet they’re tasked with creating a "modern" workplace. It’s akin to asking an arsonist to build a firehouse.
