Pros

Great management, very inclusive/ collaborative approach and a clear strategy. Maybe the Finnish approach but this is not a company that 'throws people away' - they always try to challenge and develop their employees to get the best out of them.

Cons

Can sometimes be a little too driven out of HQ. Sometimes needs to listen to their country leaders a little more.
