Pros

The company does provide International opportunities for those people who are mobile and open to various parts of the world; that's a big plus for some. It also has a recognizable brand, which means something to others. And no one really works too much for long periods of time, so there is work-life balance.

Cons

The company has a very Political culture that is driven by people who just want to protect their turf. And maybe because it is a German company (maybe not) it is really bad at making fast decisions because Leaders have little managerial courage. It's also a silo'd organization, yet HQ in Germany thinks they know everything (they don't). And, from a people perspective, the HR organization is a joke.
