Pros

High level of integrity, diversity is always welcome. Safety is a value. Salary and benefit are good. Employees are allowed to speak openly about the problems.

Cons

The company takes too much time to make a decision. Lack of opportunities to work overseas, job rotation is done in high level only. Too much bureaucracy, sometimes to make a simple decision, people are afraid to make decision.
