Pros

Working with great brands Generally, most folks are less aggressive than in other places

Cons

HR does not do a very good job at communicating / managing changes International employees do not have the same opportunities / benefits as USRO folks. Case in point - expatriate packages differ when you're coming from an International market location vs. Minneapolis. People can be nice but sometimes, you need to read between the lines - can be passive aggressive The work in International can be mind-numbing: lots of fire-fighting due to lack of people but not enough growth in term of experience Promotion / career planning in International is non-existent.
