Richmond Hill, ON. BMW Group Canada has been recognized as one of Canada’s best workplaces by the Great Place To Work Institute. This year, the German automaker was ranked #24 in the 1000+ Employees category, marking the sixth straight year of participation that the BMW Group has placed in the top 40 companies in Canada.
