Pros

Entrepreneur environment in the field, and opportunities to be hands on. Very diverse global workforce with people from many parts of the World working in the same corporate, region or country office. Transfer opportunities available. Telecommuting opportunities available depending on your manager or team.

Cons

Continues restructuring to make investor community happy impacting employee moral. Entrepreneur environment creates power struggle on the top. Weak HR management. Promotions feel like hand picked not giving fair chance to better qualified internal candidates. Bonn Tower "corporate headquarters" full of career bureaucrats and red tape.
