Business Outlook
Pros
Many internal job opportunities in many parts of the world; some good corporate-wide resources; reasonable compensation and benefits.
Cons
Huge size of company makes communication challenging, interferes with sense of team. Bureaucracy is annoying for people used to working in smaller companies. Immediate brainwashing & rebranding of acquired companies leaves employees feeling devalued. Overweighting of product portfolio in one high-capital business area (Mass Spectrometry) makes company vulnerable to competition and to fluctuations in MS markets.
