Pros

- International work culture - get a chance to work with different sites and people - Good values and lot of emphasis on everyone to follow those - Most managers support good/work life balance

Cons

- Different units/organization work in silos and do not cooperate much, Each one is interested in achieving own targets rather than looking at overall or big picture - Very frequent re-orgs and changes which create confusion in employess mind and affect morale - Below par pay or huge difference in pay even for employees with similar experience/competence - many of the policies are just on paper. and depends heavilty on the individual manager. There is no clarity on pay, internal job trasnfers and promotions and those are just situation or luck based and on the manger.

Pros

Truly global, the concept of country does not exist Communication and information sharing Modern, fresh management style Flexibility Excellent work practices and metodologies (at least in theory) Good work atmosphere A great deal of tolerance for mistakes A great variety of roles and geographic locations

Cons

Low salaries Academic background counts very little Interna processes are good in theory but heavy, difficult to understand and almost impossible to follow in practice Too often promotions are not based on merit but on personal relationships Too many middle management positions that are not really needed Internal job market is not transparent
