Pros

Global reach and plenty of development opportunities. The company has good people development plan that when taken seriously can benefit employees and bring their knowledge and skills up.

Cons

Shift changes, long hours. The nature of the work in this company is that it assumes shift work and sometimes often shift changes. Not easy to organize private life around.
