Pros

Great networking opportunities, the ability to know people from alll over the world. There is a meritocracy for middle management and below positions. You can learn best practices from other countries in your field.

Cons

Senior management promotions and appointments are a mistery, disconnected from any actual achievements. Salary is well below market, but expect above market results. No real committment to service but rather to cost reduction eliminating value and missing opportunities.
