Productive and professional work environment
Personal Assistant (Former Employee) - Pretoria, Gauteng - 28 October 2020
Loved the company culture back then. We had plenty of fun company events such as team building events & sleep away year end events. Canteen menu was varied and subsidised Although environment was fast paced it was fun and informative. Learning experience was great.Everyone was treated as equally by management. Yearly company events were held where we were allowed to bring our spouses and kids under the age of 13 years old. Not a dull day working at DC finance!
Pros
Cost effective lunches, great benefits
Cons
Not much opportunity for career advancement back then

was a very traumatic time of my life so I think under any other time and circumstance I would have really enjoyed staying with them.
Sales Executive (Former Employee) - Cape Town, Western Cape - 18 July 2020
Mercedes was awesome but my life situation then was not good. I was going through some really deep and painful trauma at the time. I doubt they would have understood then. I loved working there although the team was not openly hostile to me they were not the friendliest either. I know my skills and talent...I would have out performed all of them and then some. Its a wonderful product and I love the Premium Brand Auto Market. Its my style. I wish they would have taken time to let me settle and work out the pain and trauma....I am sure it would have turned out so much better. I was alone and had to sink deeper into a misery before I shook off the demons and created a much more meaningful and creative future for me. It took time to heal but it was a necessary journey. Mercedes Benz is Awesome.
Pros
Good Manager...good cars...good company
Cons
no emotional or trauma support when needed
