Pros

Wide range of opportunities to get experience Great career planning support Competitive compensation Management gives you second chance International mobility

Cons

Bureaucracy is thick (great company policies are twisted by bureaucracy that result in frustrated employees and lost time. Simple things like company phones, rules for using company computers, extending business travel over weekend can be nightmares)

Pros

It is a good company for the most part, great people, and good benefits. I like the fact that they are very open to the work/life balance.

Cons

They hire outside rather than promote within. They don't give you raises or bonuses when they are deserved. The yearly raises suck. They keep untalented employees and keep the talent at the bottom where they build resentment and quit.
