      Lot to learn, but difficult to manuever.

      Global supply chain manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There is a lot to learn in every area as it uses lot of state of the art processes and systems, plus it is probably the most complex international organisation ever (after GE). If you make it here, you make it anywhere. Lot of training available, and relatively many opportunities to move around between functions or countries.

      Cons

      Lots and lots of politics, difficult to maneuver, some say 90% of your time is selling your idea through the lot of interests existing, and only 10% you can work. Any HR related topic (work-life balance, promotions, talent management, etc.) is rather said than done, simply it depends too much on your line mgr, who is not trained and controlled to do what the HR strategy says (the strategy though is not a bad one at all)

      Pros

      good work life balance, opportunity for advancement, good salary, support from management is very good, ability to take on new responsibilities are available

      Cons

      health insurance is 'ok' and the premiums are too high, standardized processes are not available for many jobs resulting in higher costs of operation
