Ego-centric Management CultureThe good thingsThe brand they carry being world renowned BMW & MINI, can be alluring to have on your resume for the time being and you get to enjoy working in the presence of every make and model of BMWs & MINIs right next to your office.
But they only serves to mask the ego-centric SME that they actually are. So if you would like to explore the dark sides of corporate politics, and like to have a letter to travel during MCOs, this is the place to be.
The challengesInconsistent goals from various higher management within the family-run business. Most of the time stress doesn't come from the work as the culture have always been a "Good-Enough Mindset" where we are only instructed to meet the bare expectations only and don't ever think of new ways to improve our sales funnel or customers experience because those will incur "Unnecessary Costs". Once again, the mindset of "why spend more to be great, when we can get by being good enough and save a penny"
So the takeaway is,
- If you like to do great work, you will need to tone down and you will be stressed.
- If you value team culture, there is none here so you will be stressed.
- If you expect perks from good performance, you can keep waiting and be stressed.
