Pros

good work/life balance, friendly, interesting international environment, some great projects, reasonable benefits, pockets of excellence

Cons

Very complex and political organisation, having become increasingly French-centric over the past 5 years. Limited career evolution opportunities, with very few exceptions. Many talented people have left, although a few pockets of excellence remain.

Pros

It is possible to have a relatively easy life if that's what you want. Benefit packages have been improved recently to bring them into line with the market. Business processes are well defined and it is possible to have a diverse and challenging projects to work on.

Cons

There are very limited career development prospects. The firm is a market follower with little or no vision or strategy to speak of - but this is parr for the industry! It is driven by short term sales objectives rather than long term market ambitions and tends to focus on selling existing services to existing markets leading inevitably to ever decreasing circles.There is huge pressure on headcount and costs in general with staff picking up the slack in their 'spare time'. I know many people that have suffered serious cases of emotion burn out.

Pros

- Learn about an industry by not only watching it, but also interacting with those who make the news, and trying their products/services first hand - Pretty good face time with Orange group execs since they come visit us fairly often - Excellent work/life balance, location, and time off

Cons

- We don't have decision power here. Our primary role is to educate and recommend solutions internally. That's ok if you're patient, because Orange, like many other large companies, can be slow moving when it comes to trying new things - Not much room for advancement since the office is pretty small and director's turnover low
