Seems to be true in the UK, too. I've heard bad things about e.g. Jaguar Land Rover. As another comment says, this is probably an issue with the embedded industry as a whole. There are great tech companies you can work for, which usually have a very high standard (ARM seems to be great).
Stuttgart/Baden-Württemberg is quite conservative. The real mystery for me was why their engineering pride of doing things correctly doesn't translate to the tech industry. I don't have experience in Berlin/Hamburg/Munich, but it'd be interesting to compare.
- hef19898 7y agoMy five cents because the basic design philosophies are quite different. And also industry inherent arrogance, especially within the so called premium manufacturers. Bit the the opposite is true as well isn't it? You cannot treat automotive manufacturing like software development. I'd say the first company to successfully blend the two has a huge advantage.

- hef19898 7y agoNot so sure about Tesla having figures out automotive mass production. Cannot comment on the software side of things, but I donhave the impression that Tesla is ahead of more traditional car makers there.

They are also one of the very few manufacturers that maintain their cars and even do somewhat major UI upgrades for years after the original release. I'd say as much as they mess up, they are on the forefront when it comes to car manufacturers
