Pros

The team has very high caliber professionals. It is a very team oriented culture and in general, people seem very happy with their jobs.

Cons

There's a lot of bureaucracy but that is expected with a big company. It can make it difficult to answers to questions.

Inspiration right but operation not at all

Pros

You can perceive really a global company, you can meet very smart colleagues and well prepared people, diversity is lived and very well appreciated. Training is great. values and business vision are important reasons that inspired you to continue into this company. They are very open to new ideas and different points of view.

Cons

Not yet totally focused on clients; processes and investment take much more time than the business reality. Direct and dot line reports of executives makes the structure heavy and overcharged of political issues "bureaucracy". You waste to much more time in Self administration for several internal processes, easily deviates the focus on clients and business. HR strategy works well for high and senior positions but not for the rest.
