Business Outlook

Pros

Great company, people focussed, with good benefits and nice workplace environments. I have visited several offices and factories worldwide, and with some ups and downs, company satisfaction is high. I have also worked in different countries and organizations, which is an example of the number of opportunities available.

Cons

Slow decision process from top management, and famous dutch "consensus" decision making style, which help the company to be slower than competition.
