Pros

International company with female CEO. Established and great company to get experience with logistics as they have many clients. GREAT people who work for this company, when I was there, anyway.

Cons

Inner workings of company is very slow- moving. Takes forever to get a promotion to go through, even if your manager supports you, as it has to climb up the ladder to corporate in Switzerland. Decisions take a long time to come to fruition.
