Porsche

The company has good compensation and great benefits, however a high price is paid.  Employees are expected to do the job they are hired for and also expected to complete additional tasks above and beyond. There is a full day of regular job tasks and also additional projects with limited time frames. The work expectations are extremely high with little support. High anxiety, High stress, and with limited support from middle management. 
 
Employees often don't take breaks or full lunches, and work overtime many days in order to complete heavy work loads. This continues month after month without end. It feels like- the job is dangled over your head. The job you sacrificed all your time and effort for, could end if a middle manager has any issue at any time. The good work you did yesterday doesn't matter today.   

CEO and CFO are nice enough in meetings with encouragement toward diversity and acknowledgement however it does not seem to make it past middle management to the regular employees. 

You go into this job thinking great things simply because it’s Porsche. That could be true; though my experience working in customer service for this company has been a lot less than desiring unfortunately. There is little to no opportunities for advancement within this department, and when there is, contractors whom have busted their butts for over a year can be easily overlooked in favor a brand new employee just because. The contracting agency itself does offer real benefits, however the pay is very good so employees are tempted to stay. The customer service department has a pretty high turn over rate and is an exhausting job for several reasons that all boil down to management, being extremely understaffed and just the overall low morale of the customer service department.

Love this company. I could type for days about how much I love this company. So I will keep it short. They were nice people. Everyone was inclusive and looked out for one another. Coffee machine was fancy. And I appreciate that they make the office nice to spend all day in. Like some offices don't care what the environment looks like. Then people are miserable bc they have to spend all day there. Porsche made the place clean, warm in the winter. It was nicer than my own home. I wouldn't mide working 16 hour days there. The space provided was conducive for business and employees would stay for years and years. Our boss bought us lunch on Saturdays. He is a true gentleman. I'm getting teary eyed thinking about it. So I'll wrap this up. This company cares about their people. Love them.

My job is very self motivating and rewarding.  I enjoy completing my projects and working with customers when needed and all dealership personell on all levels. My present manufacturer's require quartley on line courses and testing for certification.  Presently Monday's are the most challenging, both credit memos for two manufacturer's arrive, both parts scrap lists and bar code requests become available, accounting on all claims completed the week before need to be completed.  Also payrol hours need to be run via reports and distributed to all service personell for review and signatures. Mondays can be over whelming but the challenge is always completed with perfection.

I'd say as a whole Porsche is a fantastic place to work and create a career in. Full of great people and even better culture. My one and only complain is of direct management. In the departments I was involved in, your direct manager (Supervisor) was rarely in office. Often "working" remotely and the times when in office, a very unapproachable person. Also, not susceptible to criticism of what is going wrong with the department and not open to listen to new ideas or suggestions on what could improve the department or a more efficient process. 

Upper management is THE BEST I have had the pleasure of working with. Always open to talk and guide you, also genuinely invested in your progress and professional growth.

It is such a great place to work but Unfortunately the issue would be management or corporate whom doesn’t believe in employee appreciation.  They do not offer pay raises and will only give you a piece of plastic with a number demonstrating the amount of years you have  worked there. With the consistent  inflation rate with the cost of living you would assume they are understanding to what goes on around “The World”  but working here has shown that the only interest is the profits they can make. Sad to see the workers getting beaten down with consistent increase in job descriptions but never the pay to accommodate. Guess it explains why it’s a revolving door of staff. 

The biggest perk to working for Porsche is the product. The company tries to push new initiatives and promote culture but it's still very much stuck in the dark ages. Internal employees are provided new opportunities based on relationships instead of qualifications. Work-life balance is improving slowly, but still very far behind the curve. The company employs some great talent, but fail to recognize and promote those talents unless they fit the "car-guy" mold.
