Pros

It's always sunny on the French Riviera and work culture is very relaxed. Also it's possible to meet there a few truly nice people, but really just a few.

Cons

This company is full of secretive liars and backstabbers. I've worked for corporations before, but at Amadeus it was a whole new level! It was a boring corporate C++ coding job with crappy life-sucking corporate tools, crappy complex code, bureaucracy and everything. Salarywise it was slightly below average, good for students maybe but after 3 years I'd expect a bit more. Some like it there, but I hated every day on the Riviera. It's dull, it's old, it's dirty, it's messy, it's small townish, it attracts very pretentious types, and I could meet only Amadeus people and a few expats. And most of all - it's very very dull!

Pros

Great weather, nature, very laid back, long vacations, some nice people. They fire people only when downsizing. Otherwise it's unbelievably safe.

Cons

It's the antonym of an inspirative / exciting / innovative / dynamic / positive work environment. Instead think of crabs in a bucket. It's all smiles and friendliness until you turn your back, then they rip you apart and rob you naked. Career options are abysmal - spending years at one position is normal. I almost forgot how to code here as well as anything about CS.
