Exciting projects but low career opportunities

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It is easy to work on exciting international projects on the edge of either technological and organizational change.

Cons

Lot of processes but most of them just formal. Little to zero training about those processes which get discovered once you need them. To progress your career you will need both good connections with your management and be located in the HQ otherwise very little chances to be recognized.
