Pros

You can coast if you want There are some nice people Opportunities to go to Amsterdam Pretty good pay and benefits Relaxed atmosphere Experience with a global, Fortune 500 company

Cons

Unless you are a white, male from Europe, there is little chance for advancement. Strong "time served" mentality. Promotion is based almost solely on time with the company. Real aversion to making decisions. Everyone is involved in the discussions, but no one make the decisions. completely oblivious to their clients and the market.
