Pros
Smith & Nephew’s GBS in Pune offers an excellent platform for professionals looking to grow in finance, supply chain, intercompany, and other support functions. The leadership is transparent, approachable, and actively supports team development and process improvements. The culture is inclusive and performance-driven, with a good balance between work and life. Employees are encouraged to take ownership and participate in transformation and automation projects, providing exposure to global operations and cross-functional collaboration. Learning opportunities are plenty – through training sessions, cross-country interactions, and mentoring.

Cons
Being a growing setup, a few processes are still stabilizing. Workload can spike during peak times (like month-end), but it's manageable with team support.
