OUR CULTURE.

We believe in supporting a progressive culture that allows all our associates to feel valued, enjoy equal opportunities and to grow with us. This is why our culture is founded on five core values, which set the tone for how we work together and how we treat each other.

Our core values.

RESPONSIBILITY.

We take consistent decisions and commit to them personally. This allows us to work freely and more effectively.

OPENNESS.

We are excited by change and open to new opportunities. We learn from our mistakes.

TRANSPARENCY.

We acknowledge concern and identify inconsistencies in a constructive way. We act with integrity.

TRUST.

We trust and rely on each other. This is essential if we are to act swiftly and achieve our goals.

APPRECIATION.

We reflect on our actions, respect each other, offer clear feedback and celebrate success.

Equal Opportunities.

The valuable and diverse contributions of our colleagues from over 110 countries shape who we are: a Bavarian automotive company that calls the world its home. For us, different perspectives and talents are key to our success. Just as our customers, suppliers, investors and partners around the globe are unique, so too are our teams – bringing fresh energy every day and putting a smile on our customers’ faces.

Gender Equality.

As a global entity, the BMW Group takes a holistic approach to the topic of equality to ensure there is equal representation of female staff in the workforce, in particular, within management positions.

To promote and encourage this, effective incentive structures have been introduced that encourage greater work-life balance and targeted action has been taken to reach out to young women to attend our training and academic programmes – one of the successes being our trainee programme AcceleratiON.

Support.

It is our mission to offer colleagues with physical or mental disabilities an inclusive and barrier-free working environment. We want all talents to feel comfortable and to bring their unique perspectives to creative processes. Not least through digitalisation, we are improving working conditions for colleagues with disabilities.
