Business Outlook

Pros

There's always new work and initiatives to keep you busy; you will never be bored for long.

Cons

Promotion is very hard unless you are in the US or UK. There is a lot of cronyism. Financial governance is getting out of control, and it's becoming hard to even do simple things.
