Pros

It depends on what business you are in, work can be very easy without any stress.

Cons

Some businesses are very hard because of logistics and some things can't be resolved by the CSR but the CSR is the one who gets the blame from customers.

Pros

You can really work with excel advanced formulas and get used to large volumes of data. As well as learn about complex businesses models. Improve your Dutch, since people tend to avoid speaking English.

Cons

If you are not English mother tongue then you can even lose that language skill since your daily communication and interaction will be highly reduced due to the dutch people behaviour (exclusion). Some teams are more international than others, but the tendency is that they ignore you are not a Dutch speaker, so you will be automatically excluded from informal conversations (and work related topics too). If you are Dutch, all opportunities to progress. I have not seen meritocracy.
