      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Challenging and very interesting work environment. Possibilities for development, great colleagues. I can absolutely recommend working here.

      Cons

      Due to international nature not everybody can speak even one of the official languages (English/French). Old established organization and bureaucracy with established and rigid ways of working, or completely free and no rules working. Working across departments very heavily dependant on the people i.e. you need the right person or nothing will happen.
