Pros

Total Rewards: Salary, Incentives, 401k match and Health Benefits are all excellent.

Cons

The past and present leadership in Germany has made a lot of bad decisions. Their DSO restructuring was also poorly executed and over empowered VPs who often valued politics and perception more than merit. The company then laid off a lot of hardworking managers, blamed them for bureaucracy while celebrating the layoffs and their soccer team. Very tone deaf.
