Pros

the work atmosphere and colleagues are great, professional development is encouraged, great international opportunities (on paper at least), most Manager's doors and ears are open for discussion

Cons

an Employee's career and future can change overnight with a change of Management, international opportunities are often limited to upper Management, foreign language skills are totally ignored for foreign assignments, a new Manager may entirely disapprove an employee's work - life Balance which was actively encouraged by the previous Manager
