Not a bad place to work at all, just somewhat conservative and slow to adapt to change

Business Outlook

Pros

- Sound and conservative management - Pleasant place to work, people tend to be very friendly - Benefits and vacation time are generous - Get to work with a large company with global prestige - Rich company can afford paying for little things here in there (like HD video conferencing) that are sound and helpful but not extravagant

Cons

- Management might be too slow to innovate and adapt to change - Tough to get promotions without moving to Europe or another country - Lots of red tape involved in getting anything done, needs to have more entrepreneurial attitude

Business Outlook

Pros

You can alway get a job here, no skills needed.. You do not have to be very committed.

Cons

If your are commmitted, they will burn you down. Salery are shitty. Bonuses are truely just 'pretend' to be as the are unreal objectives, as you have no access to figures and thus no way of checking if target is met and bonus should be pay'ed. (Often you miss some unmeasureble target and loose you bonus for no reason in your control)
