Pros

* Flexible hours * Lots of opportunity for CV building by taking on additional work * If you have the time for it there are many opportunities for community building and charity work, there are also many vocational learning tools

Cons

* Teams are regularly understaffed for unacceptably long periods of time. * Non-functionally top heavy. Every one's a regional director who's too busy to get involved in the nitty gritty. There are a couple people who actually do things and everything else is offshore. * Global makes local realities overly difficult, irresolvable and convoluted. A constant battle between local commitments and global. * Expected to work well out of office hours to interface with East Coast USA on a regular basis with no overtime. * If you don't sell anything, and you don't move to Florida, your advancement opportunities and recognition are limited.
