Pros

A large enterprise that feels like a cozy family-owned company still. Great employee benefits. International locations, many opportunities for career advancement, or change. Company cares about employees, programs to look after employees' health, mental health, stress level, personal economy, family relationships. High ethical standards worldwide, highly respected internationally. Donates to many local projects, organisations, sports teams, schools, etc. Not as bureaucratic or hierarchical as most other companies of the same size.

Cons

For people who are not used to open discussions with senior managers, or who do not work by their own initiative, but need a boss who tells them exactly what to do, it can be difficult to understand the company culture.

Pros

Good work-life balance, decent PTO and benefits, friendly coworkers

Cons

Slow moving in central IT function, many decisions are made by committee, which slows the process way down. Compensation is below average. I have received promotions every 1-2 years for the last 5 years, but advancement in compensation has been very poor. At best it took 10 months to receive a 10% raise commensurate with my promotion. On the worse end, I received almost no salary increase despite my manager, their manager and their manager (our department head) approving the proposed raise.
