Pros

Staff and management are very friendly and helpful. Career development is prioritised and staff have access to free online courses on a range of work-related subjects. There is free lunch and staff loan rates are perhaps the best incentive to settle and build a career. There are training opportunities each year, some of which includes international travel.

Cons

I.T department seems to be the weakest link in the company and a challenge to work with. Mediocrity and non-performance doesn't seem to have any consequences leading to widespread apathy in some departments.

Pros

Large organisation that stood the test of time. Great employee benefits. Great learning opportunities. Exposure to different disciplines and geographies since it is an international organisation..

Cons

Instability due to constant change in executive management. Lack of trust within the company. Although the company invests a lot on training the staff, it opts to use external contractors even where t could use own train, skilled and capable staff members.
