Pros

New technology, cutting edge. Get to work on a lot of interesting programs and projects. Am able to go to trainings whenever I need to. Great people. Everyone is very motivated.

Cons

Corporate structure is overbearing at times. Tons of red tape. Lots of moments of asking yourself if upper management really cares about us or if we're all just numbers on an excel sheet in basel (which we are).
