Pros

Thrilling multinational workplace that fosters diversity of ethnic groups as well as backgrounds and competencies. Offers abundant opportunities to switch careers within the company. Also offers great opportunities for international travel and assignments.

Cons

Ineffective personnel function, including under-staffing and random selection of HR managers leads many employees to frustration. The company's direction of not treating Management as a discipline, but rather as progression from technical careers is hurting the practice as a whole.
