Working towards a worthwhile mission!

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Really friendly environment, opportunities for cross functional and cross country experiences, values entrepreneurial people who really take the initiative to make a difference and most importantly a real commitment to live the company's mission to improve lives through the corporate mission division. That's something to be proud of.

Cons

Doesn't yet have a really international culture and still feels like the French fulture is a bit too strong, Can get political but not to exceptional levels
