Business Outlook
Pros
Good treatment of people overall, reasonable long-term thinking and some attention to retaining good employees. This is the good part of "European": people still matter.
Cons
Very travel-heavy, lots of face-to-face international meetings, very centralized decision structure with most of the big decisions being made in Europe (this is the less-good part of "European"). Sometimes there's a feeling that the North American employees are a bit lower in the eyes of the Europeans and have to work harder and prove themselves in a way they might not if they came from France.
